Summary

I began my 35+ years career in the timber industry at Hampton Hardwood Sawmill in South Bend, WA. at the age of 18. I worked there for 13 years working my way into a supervisor position. From there I went into falling timber by hand, which led me to being the feller buncher operator I am currently. I have extensive experience in the logging industry, skilled in heavy equipment operation, and troubleshooting. I consistently exceeded performance targets while ensuring safety compliance and operational efficiency. Proven ability to train new operators and optimize production processes.
