Summary

I would like to send this resume in to Common Arc to be considered for a proctor position. I believe I could be an asset to the program with what I have to offer.

I've started in the blue collar industry in 1977 as a certified welder, did my apprenticeship with the boilermakers and worked my way up through ranks up to the position of Coordinator. Which I will retire out of in July, 2017

While the Coordinator I organized Common Arc sessions for the last 12years.

If there is a reason I excelled through this business is because I have very good organization skills and good work ethic. Knowing that a mans reputation is only as good as his skills and abilities- I tried to reflect that in the work I always did in what ever position I held in my working years.

I do like to hunt & fish in the months of April-June and September-November
