Summary

Experienced in rigging to ensure heavy loads are secure and safe to be lifted by crane or chain hoist. I also have the ability to assemble scaffolding for my team and other trades to walk and work on. In addition to that, I also have the knowledge to build spawls that could be used to frame up platforms where scaffolding isn't an option.

Excellent communication skills, able to work together as a team to ensure a safe work environment for myself and others.
