Lawrence Weaver
Superintendent/Foreman/Operator
Magnolia,TX
Summary
I am an excellent leader, who leads by example. I say this to you without needing to use lavish vocabulary. I love to work, and to see anything I put my time and effort into, be successful. I know from years of work, mentoring, training, and learning this cannot be done on my own. This task takes a team who truly knows, you see and appreciate them and see thier value as individuals. I have had many men and women in my life who have stepped up and seen the value in me and invested time into me to help me become the man I am today. I can only hope there are men and women, as well as companies who can say the same about me. I am not perfect but I strive to always do the right thing especially when no one is looking.
