Experienced in steam plant valves and bearings, as well blue checks, lapping, boring machines, hand and power tools, PMI, and log keeping. Proficient in understanding TWD's, performing positive component identification, and Table Top Reviews. Received a C.O.R.E. reward for work on MS-12 and MS-13 seats on the John Warner, a NNSY first. As well as being nominated for 'Subs with Subs' by the Supervisor for showing initiative and leadership as such a new mechanic to the crew.
