Summary

Having over 20 years of experience in this diverse trade, being heavily involved in nearly every facet of the industrial field has afforded me great opportunities to advance my electrical knowledge, while perfecting the craftsmanship of my trade. Supervising technicians installing and commissioning an extensive variety of control and safety systems, along with high and low voltage power distribution applications throughout the industry. This has made me a strong and useful candidate for any mid-management and/or technician in this field. I am a strong, capable, and determined leader, whose craftsmanship can speak for itself. From years of working offshore, installing state of the art equipment, to supervising the installation of substations from duct banks to startup. Working with engineering and upper management, deciding procedures for installation of equipment and raceways throughout the project. From building new units to installing upgrades in existing power and chemical plants, also oil and gas refineries. Working through the construction and commissioning process to finally assist operations, engineering and plant personnel in startup, doing loop and interlock checks along with redlining schematics for correction. Troubleshooting process equipment with hand held test equipment, and can fully realize and delegate a job's scope through extensive knowledge of deciphering prints. I lead motivated crews maintaining progress reports and look ahead meeting with upper management to discuss production and realize remaining job scope.
