Was subcontracting to Henry Fisher homes built that business up and became a top choice contractor for that company.About 2008 the home building market crashed and was able to start and run a small bait and tackle shop for a couple yrs which did ok.Around 2012 was able to be hired in production at lafarge and worked my way up the ladder within 5 yrs getting into the maintenance department.Entered in as a Lubrication tech after much study and hard work received my MLT1 and made my way into maintenance technician.Was occasionally asked to fill in as group lead when needed and was a good fit for me . Technicians respected and worked well for me.Also was ask to fill in as a team lead for about 3 months and was able to run the whole department for that time.Ended up with 13 years of manufacturing experience and about 8 yrs of total industrial maintenance experience.
