Summary
With over 20 years of experience in structural steel construction, I bring deep expertise in large-scale survey project management, heavy equipment operation and Superintendent experience to my field. I have walked and preformed every aspect of the Iron helping me become a true Metallurgist. My career reflects a commitment to delivering high-quality results in complex multi-million dollar projects.
Previously, I have contributed significantly to the iron industry as a Structural Steel Surveyor Level 3, where I participated in notable projects such as stadiums and shipyards across the United States.
