Summary
Most of my work background is in electrical work whether it be low voltage or high voltage. To my knowledge I've never had any customer complaints in my electrical career. I've always done my best to work around customers schedules to insure they're satisfied with our work as a contractor and strived to understand construction specs for Ga Power and other EMCs I've worked around. The most powerful tool I've had was my voice to let anyone know if I'm uncomfortable completing any task I don't have extensive knowledge on.
