Summary
I have been an HVAC installer for just under 3 years. During my time I have installed hundreds of units, as well as complete duct systems. What I lack in experience, I make up for in a never give up attitude, as well as a hard work ethic. I love HVAC and plan to do it for the rest of my life. During my time as a residential installer, I quickly became a lead, in charge of an apprentice. The Marine corps taught me to adapt to any situation thrown my way and has made me grow under pressure. I am currently a commercial installer for Interstate Mechanical Services, and have installed Chillers, Boilers, Dectrons, AAONS, as well as the newest refrigerants being R-32 and R-454B.
