Summary

Brandon Velasquez I would like to start off by saying i am a hard working individual. I always show up for work ready to do my part. I like to meet new people and learn new things and I am determined to expand my knowledge for the mining industry. Although I’ve only been in mining for a few years, I can honestly say that it’s been a great experience and I can’t wait to see what’s in store for me with this carrier choice.
