Summary

Punctual, hardworking, motivated leader who thrives in fast-paced decision-making environments. I have years of experience working in the construction and aerospace industries. Working in emergency response situations that require quick and confident decision-making. I am no stranger to operating heavy machinery, as well as working on flight hardware that requires specified precision work. Outside of my career, I am a family man with a beautiful wife of 14 years and three amazing children. In my spare time, I volunteer as a basketball and soccer coach for my children's school. Having a strong work ethic and being reliable is something I pride myself on, so my children have a great example for their future.
