years of professional experience
Resourceful laborer with extensive experience in equipment operation and general maintenance. Recognized for quick adaptation to changing project needs and commitment to promoting a safe, efficient work environment. I've had experience as a lineman, which was semi short lived and received certifications for Traffic Safety, CPR/First Aid/AED, Aerial Lift and Scissor Lift Safety Training. Although some of these Certifications have expired I've retained the information thoroughly. Looking for a dedicated company that will allow me to showcase my skills and grow. My goal is to adapt and help the company attain its goals while generating a lifelong career and relationship.
