Experienced Operations Shift Manager with hands-on experience managing day-to-day operations of the refinery from start to finish. I started in the maintenance pool and after 8 months moved to the operations control room. Worked as a Crude Stillman for 12 years before accepting the position of Operations Shift Manager in April 2014 where I am currently still employed. I accepted the position with no experience on the Hydrotreater but I took it as a challenge to learn it and consider myself proficient in operating and trouble shooting issues as they arise.
