I Started my working life at 14 while still in high school with my first job as a server assistant in Panama City, Florida. I soon moved into the photo booth I.T. Doing all the computer work for the photographer as I was learning computer / mobile app development on the side while still working as a server assistant occasionally. When I turned 18 I moved back to Georgia and got a job shortly after working for a pharmaceutical auditing company, Capital Inventory, where I had the opportunity to learn a lot about the inventory, sales and accounting side of pharmacies and work in a professional environment were I worked my way from new hire up to supervisor and eventually processing data and reviewing all collected data prior to sending it back to customers. About two years into my journey in the pharmaceutical industry I got an offer to work in the oilfield on a drilling rig, Raven Drilling. Here I learned a lot about hard work, dedication and began my long and difficult change of environment. After working floors at Raven Drilling for a little over a year, we ended up getting laid off so took some time off while waiting for things to pick up and got a job at American Process Group as a Geo Engineer running centrifuges and collecting material data on dredging and dewatering projects across North America, until the oilfield picked back up which is when I went to Stoneham drilling to continue my path in the oilfield. At Stoneham, I got to add on to all the things I learned at Raven Drilling and really learn a lot as I gradually started to develop more confidence and competence on a rig. Eventually I decided I wanted to move to a larger company and ended up working for a old toolpusher from Raven again at True Drilling, where I worked floors once again and eventually got some experience as a derrickhand before taking a new and exciting opportunity to work in the artic, Prudhoe Bay with All American Oilfield. At All American I worked floors once again for a hitch and then quickly got a spot as a derrickhand and really got to prove myself and competence on the rig and once again learn many new things. At the end of spring we did end up stacking our rig out and had no more work to follow, so currently I am seeking new opportunities of employment that will allow me to take the experiences and skills I've acquired over the years and apply them.
