Summary

I’m currently a local 563 union laborer working on the pipeline. I'm most comfortable operating a skid loader, excavator, dozer and roller. I’m looking to continue my career in construction work as I have been in the field for 7 years but am receptive to learning new skill sets. I have a passion for operating equipment and I’m not afraid to work hard to ascend in the company. I'm committed to arriving to work on time, if not early and do what needs to be done to be sure the job gets done.
