Summary

Very hardworking individual, worked 6 months on a work over rig, then have spent the last 10years on a drilling rig, worked my way up from floorhand to derrickman with hard work and dedication. I’m extremely motivated and will do anything in my power to get the task at hand done. I like to try to be the best at what I do but also wanna help my team out also, nothing beats a good team. I have been taking orders my whole life and work career and I do not mind taking them anywhere I go.
