• Electrician specializing with building enclosures, wiring relay panels, AC/DC panels, switchgear, low voltage switchgear, HVAC systems, and testing all devices. Working with live voltage up to 480 during testing phase. I have been sent out to the field to help with the installation of the substations when needed, most recently for Hunter Control substation in Riverside. I work with various water and power utilities, mainly SCE, TEP, AEP, PG&E, and PACIFICORP, each adhering to different codes and expectations.

• I worked as a subcontractor for KB Home and Lennar installing tile and laminate vinyl plank flooring. During this time most of the projects were in Chula Vista and the Temecula area. I would tile backsplashes, showers, entry, whole living areas, and patios. My last project was the completion of a 100,000 sqft new apartment complex consisting of both tile and LVP material. I left this position to pursue trade school for the electrical field.
