Work History

- First of all, I am proud to say I was one of the first JLL Techs hired onto the EMHC Spring Woodlands Campus when it opened up. I was at the campus performing many PMs and inspections, such as weekly and monthly fire extinguisher, safety shower/eye wash station, sump pump, and fire pump runs. I learned everything about Fire & Life Safety (FLS), which includes fire panels, fire drills, and replacing various devices such as smoke detectors, heat detectors, AVs, and duct detectors. I have come to teach LPS Training (Loss Prevention System), which is a 4-hour safety class dealing with everything from working at heights to PPE, active shooter, etc. I have also been a part of the General Building Maintenance Team, working with painting, ceilings, floors, and roads. I operate all machinery, make keys, oversee day-to-day operations as a Lead, schedule vendors, get quotes, and oversee the work projects from beginning to end.
- I am currently working at URC FTF in Friendswood for ExxonMobil, with JLL.
- Before this, I worked in the printing business for 26 years as a machine operator in several companies around the Houston area.
