Summary

I am a experienced Master Electrician with over 20 years in the trade. I have worked in such areas as: Service, Production, and Management. I am a self motivated, real go-getter individual, looking for the right company to continue my career in construction management. Earlier working experiences include: working w/ a small specialty company dealing with high voltage motors, pumps, controls and working on production crew for new construction projects. I was given the opportunity to attend a state college Electrical Apprenticeship for 4 years and then received Journeyman certificates in two Florida counties. I proceeded my education and received my Master Electrician certificate a few years later. My work experience has also given me the option to obtain a Class "B" Commercial Drivers License which I currently hold and the ability to drive and operate a large truck.
