Summary

I’m a 10 year member of the pipefitter union as a pressure welder welding both high pressure carbon steel and stainless steel pipe using tig and smaw welding process. I have a good amount of experience running different types of equipment such as excavators and rock trucks being that I grew up in a logging family. I moved to Nakusp 3 years ago and am looking for a change to keep me home more with my family after 10 years of travelling around different parts of bc for different Mill and Dam shutdowns
