Summary
I have worked my way through the NDT industry testing products and inspecting their processes in the oil and gas industry for over a decade.
I’ve worked in nearly all of the Midwestern and Eastern States in the US with a variety of different people from different walks of life.
During my first 10 years of employment I gained the experience and certifications required to pursue the ASNT level 3 certifications in which I have already acquired three of them, and transitioned into Quality Control/Quality Assurance. Below is the full list of certifications I currently hold and utilize.
- Radiographic Testing Level 3
- Magnetic Particle Testing Level 3
- Penetrant Testing Level 3
- Ultrasonic Testing II
- Visual Testing II
I am currently studying to take the VT level 3 exam in the coming months.
