Summary

After 2 years of doing maintenance at various apartment complexes I joined the union electricians apprenticeship program in 2016. I completed my training and reached journeyman in 2020. Most of my time was spent running conduits and pulling wire. I excelled at lighting related jobs. I completed all jobs to the agreed upon end. I have worked in harsh weather conditions, clean and dirty jobs. willing to work overtime when needed. I often develop positive working relations quickly.
