Summary
I started my electrical apprenticeship in Denver Colorado in 2016 and have been a commercial electrician on high rise big projects ever since. I have completed schooling and have more than enough OJT hours to take the journeyman test. I received a major pay increase when i was offered a leadership position with RK Mechanical and lost my motivation to take the journeyman test. However ive been hitting the books again and studying up to take the test. I was a team lead for RK and later mentored and taught younger apprentices at weifield.
