Summary

In my career to become a barehand lineman & foreman I have learned to run various types of equipment ranging from tensioners, buckets trucks and cranes. I have learned different techniques to get projects done on a timely manner to meet dead lines. I have also learned to communicate with the client and team to get the projects done to get all the necessary paperwork and required reclosures and outages to get our projects done. I have worked with various types of wire ranging from 4/0 - 1926, working with single circuit and double circuit reconstruct, green field, and bypass lines. I have worked with various types of voltages ranging from 69kv - 345kv. I have knowledge in reading the blueprints, sag charts, and pole setting measurements. The majority of my career has been spent working on Oncor systems with very minimal time working on other entity systems.
