Summary

I am a dedicated and hard working foreman/excavator with 11 years of experience at Lopez Utilities Contractors. This is where I have gained all my experience in wastewater, pipe bursting and water lines through dedication and hands on experience. My objective is to contribute to your department as a inspector or, potentially, as a project manager where I can demonstrate the knowledge and experience I have gained over the years under the guidance of my superintendent. I'm confident on my ability to quickly acquire new skills and adapt to tackle complex challenges. I'm also eager to further enhance my expertise through continuous learning, including formal education in engineering.
