Conclusion
I have spent my adult career in the industrial sector, working on projects from Florida to Texas to Ohio as the lead operator, running cranes from 15-ton neck breakers to 660-ton crawlers. I was trained by some of the best operators, and I have trained others. I've worked on new construction, such as Norco, Praxair, and Valero, operating anything up to 2250 tons for the Valero Refinery Norco expansion with S&B, operating day and night shifts, up to 130 tons RT crane in Scio, Ohio, operating a 660 tons crawler with a max-er attachment Very little experience with it, I hope to become a member of your team and strive more in our industry; I do believe I would bring my experience in crane and rigging to your company, and strive to succeed, becoming an asset to your company
