Summary
United States Navy veteran with 5 years active duty and 1 year of reserve service. I seek challenging opportunities where I can fully use my skills for the success of the organization. I am seeking a position in the telecommunications training industry. I was a key maintenance member in my shipboard division with both pneumatic and hydraulic hoisting systems, which followed with my meritorious promotion placing me in a leadership role within my department. Upon an honorable discharge I attended Eastern Kentucky University utilizing my GI bill and then came to Florida after the pandemic to pursue the telecommunications trade by attending LAC for a tower technician program. Upon my entry into the field i was a responsible technician with excellent troubleshooting skills. Highly effective in complying with safety requirements evidenced by zero work loss days. Broad skills in maintenance and bench builds.
