Safety Mindset
Through the years I have always been vocal on issues regarding the safety and well being of myself as well as others around me. I am never too scared to speak up and always willing to listen! Experience has taught me that, you learn something new almost every day. An operator that says he knows it all is the most dangerous on any job site.
Thank You
Thanks for your consideration

Leadership Experience
As an operator I have to take a leadership role almost on a daily basis. For example, going to new jobsite locations every day working with customers side by side to determine where to set up the crane, as well as how loads are supposed to be rigged properly and safely.
Communication Skills
Never been one who was scared to ask for help when presented with problems/obstacles I couldn't find solutions to. Always work well with others, and always been a team player.
