I am currently employed at Florence Baptist Church as a facilities technician. I am doing custodial work, helping set up and break down events, and assisting with other projects around our facility.

Potter's Ranch is a 640 acre wilderness Christian camp located in Union, KY. There are horses, camp sites, activities, cabins, many wonderful areas to explore and enjoy nature, etc. I worked here for a year on the maintenance team. Here, I did just about anything maintenance related, such as some housekeeping, mowing, helping take care of the horses, and fixing things wherever needed. I was also the only person interested in HVAC there, so I was given the opportunity to gain experience cleaning condenser coils on the A/C units at the many beautiful air-conditioned buildings on the ranch.

This was a temporary summer position where I worked on a new construction apartment complex located near Blue Ash, Ohio assisting in the installation of kitchen cabinets and some trim. We assisted one another in lifting and making sure all of our measurements and locations were correct, as well as finding solutions to accommodate for some rooms that were not framed correctly, or measurements/locations of cabinets, plumbing stub outs, or electrical boxes that may not have been the most accurate to the plans we were given to work from.
