Summary
Knowledgeable in multiple fields and areas, I kept meticulous records for transporting explosives for ExPro to maintain compliance with the DOT. Records for materials used during a job for precise billing of the client.
Working for Meylan, I ensured all hydro pump hoses/equipment was in working order for the safety of me and my peers. Helped to ensure all vehicles were up to date with routine maintenance for any upcoming jobs we may acquire.
Being partial to hands on work, I excelled in boilermaking. I disassembled and reassembled various piping spools, valves, and exchangers with the upmost attention to details, anything from correct gasket to all studs facing the same way. Timely work was always the most important part, jumping from task to task quickly was essential to my success which also enhanced my mechanical prowess
