OBJECTIVE:

Honest, hardworking Veteran, seeking a long term career with a company which

appreciates a Veteran’s capability and adaptability. I have developed a mindset that

failure is not an option. If I am asked to accomplish a mission or a task, I must find a

way to get it done. There is no good excuse for failure. There is only an expectation that

the mission will be accomplished. As a military veteran I have a different approach to

difficult circumstances and understand the word Duty to mean “We act based on our

moral obligations.”

Summary of Expertise:

1. Served in the U.S. Army for a period of 4 years and 18 weeks.

2. Worked in the Oilfield Service

3. Worked in dirt excavation projects for approx. ten years in commercial and

residential development.

4. Welding and mechanical background in gasoline engines and some diesel as

well.

5. Construction experience in sheet rocking, mudding and taping including some
