Summary

Competent Utility Inspector well-versed in applying local and state codes fairly to all utility construction projects. Dedicated and hardworking team player with excellent verbal and written communication skills. Although my experience in inspections has not been long began, I have gained a lot of insight through some very knowledgeable inspectors to what this industry expects and the what my roles are as an inspector. I've been able to apply my knowledge and experience of general construction to safety, environmental, and proper installation of many items and assets.

Im eager to learn more always, and accept that i don't know everything, however i will use all resources at my disposal to find the answer. I only desire is to succeed and be accepted favorably by my peers and family.
