I became a Foreman for Enviromental SWPPP repairs, maintenance and site inspections. I supervise multiple crews to do the repairs and maintenance on silt fence and install ECB. We seed, hydroseed, install silt fence and install ECB on slopes and/or blow hay on areas of bare soil that was repaired from washouts or bare areas that need grass coverage. I’ve been on the civil side as well, digging basins, using laser and grade rods. I’ve also operated skidsteers, front end loaders, excavators, dozers, 12k forklifts and PD10s. I’ve operated them different types of equipment the 4 years I’ve been doing solar. I’ve also installed risers and culverts in retention ponds and maintained them thru out the site.

As a palletizer operator, i made sure the robotic machines place the water onto pallets and send out to the wrapping station to be wrapped for storage or placed on trailer to be shipped out. I also made sure other coworkers were sending the package water down the line ready to be placed on pallets by the robotic machines. After water have been placed on the pallets and wrapped, I then unload 2 pallets at a time and stored in the warehouse until ready to be loaded onto the trailer.

As a stocker for Walmart, my job was to unload trucks in the back by putting boxes on a rolling line to be placed in receiving room. After unloading the trailer, I then take the items we received and stock the store. I left in 2019 to go to welding school.
