Supervisor

RK Steel
2014.06 - 2023.01

I began my career at RK Steel right out of high school. I started as a welder and a year and a half after I gained my certification and became a supervisor on day shift. A few years after that I became a night shift supervisor running my own crew on my own shift. My responsibilities running my own crew consisted of time management and making sure that a steady pace was kept so that all job deadlines were met, management of my crew and making sure communication between departments were kept and everyone was in sync, I have experience making the hard decisions to let people go if they weren't working out and most importantly I was in charge of all quality from the layout of the product to the welds and the paint.
