Engineer Design
Resume:
Rich B. Hord
Leaf River, IL 61047
********@*****.***
I have over 15 years of hands-on experience from conceptual design to design
engineering; from thermal forming new products and tools, to product quality inspections.
From the computer, straight to the materials, I have a passion in construction in every
aspect; from installing landscape designs including paver patios, decks and ponds to
indoor improvements such as electrical, flooring and building projects. Whether working
independently, as a team member or manager, I have demonstrated dependability, quality
and service to all I work for and with.
