• ASME Section VIII and IX Seminars (Odessa, TX)

Highlights:
• The first 10 years of my career, I worked as a Certified NQ and ASME Code Welder. I was welding and
fabricating throughout various shops and power plants in the Southeastern United States. I became well known
as a master of my craft, but I wanted more out of my career. At nights I studied and practiced drafting with a
borrowed AutoCAD program that I had gotten from an Engineer friend. After I was self taught, I started doing
prints for the shops. I also liked Machining so I took CNC programming and used this to help with
manufacturing.
• Not long after this, when I would go out on a job I was placed in a lead position. People could quickly
recognize that I knew what I was doing, and they seemed to step aside and follow my lead.
• I was asked to be the shop superintendent at a new facility called Precision Systems, owned by a couple that
had took notice of my skills and made me a healthy offer. I designed and built pressure vessels and piping, with
the crew I had hand picked. We were very successful in the North Ga. Area.
• In the first two weeks at the Buford Dam Project, in Buford, GA I was promoted to Mechanical Foreman.
After 6 more weeks I was promoted to General Foreman. I was working for Western Summit Construction, and
stayed till completion of the project, and was offered a job as Maintenance Tech at the plant itself after it was
running, but I decided to go out West instead.
• Ι only worked 3 months at the J.W. Williams Plant in Casper, WY. My ASME code knowledge was
recognized and I was asked to go to Odessa, Texas as part of a Start-up Crew at a branch shop, being their
Quality Control Manager, where I stayed till we had it up and running well.
• I was ask by another acquaintance, which was familiar with my code knowledge, to come back up to WY to
get another shop going as their Quality Control Manager. This was T3-Energy Services, and where I am
presently working today. I started out as Mechanical Foreman, then went to Production Manager, by this time
the guy that was doing quality was gone. I took over the Quality Manager position right after he had a really bad
internal audit 42 findings and 27 concerns, after 6 months we had our next audit and I had brought it down to 21
findings and 9 concerns. We just had this years audit, with 9 findings and 3 concerns, I have improved the
quality dramatically over the past couple years at this facility. I Just recently passed my Level II NDE test in
Magnetic Particle and Liquid Penatrant testing.
