Summary
I started my career in the electrical industry in 2018 as a helper at ISC Electrical Contractors, where I learned the basics of wiring, conduit, and equipment. I then joined TIC - The Industrial Company as an apprentice, and completed 8,000 hours of on-the-job training and four years of NCCER coursework to obtain my Electrical Journeyman License. I worked on various projects, such as the GTPP Ethylene Plant and the Freeport LNG, where I gained valuable experience and skills in cable theory, MV terminations, and troubleshooting.
I am passionate about learning new technologies and techniques, and I seek new opportunities to further my profession. I am motivated by challenging and complex projects, and I enjoy working with a diverse and collaborative team. My goal is to continue to develop my expertise and leadership skills, and to contribute to the success and safety of the electrical industry.
