Summary

Started in the electrical industry as a commercial electrician and eventually transitioned into industrial to extend my knowledge of the trade. What I also found in industrial is a great interest in PLC and Automation systems. With the experience I've gained in both the commercial and industrial world, I feel like I'm well on my way to being a well-rounded Journeyman in the future. Main skillsets include: Problem Solving, Working Efficient and Safe Under a Tight Deadline, and Respect for my Peers. Have worked everywhere from highrises to refineries and with that experience have gained extensive knowledge in Conduit Bending, Cable Tray, Panel Installation and Termination, Control, I/O termination / install, Fire Alarm / security, Heat Trace, Grounding and Bonding, and Temporary Power. Currently a certified Red Seal Journeyman Electrician
