Summary
With over 10,000 hours of experience, as well as studying a total of 96 credits so far, I have graduated from the Puget Sound Electrical JATC, taken and passed my General Exam through the state of WA, earning my EL01 license. I am also familiar with HVAC and plumbing systems, having routed power and assisted in troubleshooting their systems. I am currently preparing to take the administrative exam (April 12th) and in my free time I volunteering at both food banks, the union, AA events, as well as participate in landscaping activities throughout my community. I learn quickly, communicate well, and enjoy working as a team. I believe I would make a great fit for your organization as I am always at work, on time, and stay productive.
