Summary
I am an Industrial Electrician with over a decade of experience with a high education of the Electrical field. I have been mentored by a very good electrical engineer and great Journeyman electrician. I work great with a team but also work fine alone. I have not met anyone I can not work with. I have always worked safely and will continue to do so. I believe I can be an asset to any company that gives me a chance. Thank you for your consideration.
