Power Plant Electrical

**/**/**

Dear Hiring Manager:

I was interested to see your posting for a job reference number NY1013104

and would like to learn more about this opportunity.

I am a navy nuclear operator with extensive experience as a shut reactor

operator for the US Navy. I have 6 years of experience as a shutdown

reactor operator I monitored and controlled all aspects of the nuclear

power plant parameters. In this role, I was the supervisory element over

all plant operators. I also have 2+ years of experience as a GE field

service engineer. In this role, I was responsible of operations, maintaince

and corresponding with the customers of GE.

I feel that my skills as an operator, a supervisor, and customer relations

would be an asset in this role.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I hope to have the opportunity

to discuss any openings with you in person.

Sincerely
