Summary

I have 26 years of extensive experience with rotating mechanical equipment.

In that time I have worked on a wide variety of equipment in an assorted

atmosphere. I have worked in food processing plants, trash burning plants,

chemical plants, paper mills, breweries, power plants, and a Bose

electronics manufacturer. In power generation, I have experience in

conventional, supercritical, simple cycle, combined cycle and co-gen (or

CHP), boiler plant or plant process industries. I have mechanical start-

up/commissioning experience with the following combustion turbines Alstom-

Stal GTX-100, GE LM 2500, GE/Alstom Frame 5N, and Frame 6B, Siemens-

Westinghouse (501D5A, 501FD2), and Caterpillar, Cummins, Detroit and

Wartsila diesel-gen sets with plant power production ratings ranging from

20 mw to over 1000 mw simple cycle as well as combined cycle. I also have

maintained/ and or commissioned boilers and HSRG's to include; ABB-CE,

Babcock & Wilcox, Babcock-Hitachi, Supercritical, Doosan, Foster

Wheeler/Detroit, and superheated and supercritical steam cycles. I also

have an expansive knowledge of Steam Turbine Generators including, but not

limited to ABB, Dresser-Rand, GE, Hitachi, Ingersoll- Rand, Siemens,

Toshiba, Elliott and Westinghouse. I have some operating experience with GE

Mark V & VI, and Siemens-Westinghouse. My positions held, and management

skills include personnel supervision (both union and nonunion), training

and management for all phases of plant construction, commissioning,

startup, and maintenance. I am a fully qualified individual capable of all

of the previous mentioned, and bringing any job along from the breaking

ground to start-up to steady state. My years of expertise are in fossil as

well as nuclear. I have planned, executed, and managed projects ranging

from $3M to $300M (part of a 2.6B job).
