Summary

Results-driven 3D Printing Technician with experience operating, maintaining, and troubleshooting printers while leading daily lab operations and a team of technicians to deliver high-quality parts on schedule. Blends strong construction-site background in concrete work, layout, and safety with mechanical aptitude and equipment maintenance skills, aligned with large-scale 3D-printed homebuilding. Recognized for project management, problem analysis, and clear communication, with a proven record of keeping equipment running, job sites organized, and print quality high in fast-paced field environments. My degree is in Advertising, but my hands-on experience is in operating and managing 3D printing systems at USF. I realized I'm stronger in technical operations and field work, which is why I am pursuing additive construction roles.
