Summary of Qualifications

** + years as an electrician: In my first five years, I was very fortunate

to have attended a well-rounded apprenticeship. I became a foreman for

Gibson Electric upon completion of my apprenticeship. I've had the great

opportunity of running work with many different types of electrical

contractors.

Residential, Commercial, and Industrial: Lighting and lighting controls,

Power systems, Tele-communications, Fire Alarm Systems, HVAC Temperature

controls, Motor controls, Audio/Visual sound systems, and Security systems.

I posses excellent communication skills, with owners, upper management,

vendors, general contractors, other trades, municipality inspectors, and

manpower.

Demonstrated effective leadership by applied team concepts such as: "Lean

Construction methods" minimizing labor, increasing productivity, meeting

goals and objectives, staying goal orientated, and getting the job done in

a timely and workmanship like manner and frequently under budget.

Proficient at sales and assessing the needs of clients and businesses.

Successfully estimated, presented, negotiated, and closed on good sales of

materials and labor.

Networking/Prospecting: Past, present and future clients; Coordination and

presentation of sales meetings with potential customers.

Proficient at drafting and CAD.

I Posses great problem solving skills. There is a solution that fits all

needs.

Accomplishments

Most recently I have been focusing on high tech energy and lighting. LED

and CFL lighting solutions. Giving businesses the greatest amount of light

output for the least amount of energy input. This is saving people energy

and money right away and in the long run. This is also giving the customer

greater light output to sell more product. Simply amazing!

Gainfully gathered other contracts with the Signature Group. They are in

charge of the operations of The Chicago Executive Airport and many other

airports also. This involved maintenance of all electrical at the airport

from the hangers to the runway lighting, Generators to high efficiency

lighting.

The construction of a multimillion dollar executive airport hanger at the

Chicago Executive Airport in Wheeling Illinois. I took pride in building

this hanger as any job that I complete. The owner of Cancer Treatment

Centers of America, Mr. Dick Stevenson, is a very precise man and expects

nothing but the finest in craftsmanship. I personally had the opportunity

to meet with him one on one at the end of the project. Mr. Stevenson was

very pleased with the final completed product. I was very pleased to have

had the chance to build, what I have been told by many, is the nicest and

priciest hanger in America.

Took leadership for Becker electrical group on the Waukegan Aviation

Corporate Facilities "Ramp expansion and fuel farm replacement project" At

the Waukegan Airport. Over saw the project and recognized the over-sights

missed in the original bid which I researched, estimated and wrote up job

extras for. This stopped Becker Electrical Group from loosing a substantial

amount of money.

I took leadership with Becker Electrical Group in building two new

buildings and continuing to maintain the entire Sedgebrook retirement

community in Lincolnshire Il.

Successfully reverse designed a projector booth scenario. This involved

theatre lighting controls, MTX audio controls, Dimming panels, and

projector controls. I presented my design, built the prototype, and sold

the design to Century Park Theaters. They built their new drawings off of

this design.

Travelled North America with RPG electric. I was involved in three

substantial upgrades for Baxter/ Allegiance/ Cardinal Health Care. The

first project was called "The Apollo Project" this involved upgrading the

entire Wan (Wide area network) system from 4 Mb to 16 Mb. We disassembled

and reconstructed the entire infrastructure. We upgraded everything from

the computer room to each and every workstation, We installed clean IG

(isolated ground) power, Liebert UPS battery systems, fiber optics, type 1

cable, and cat 5E and cat 6 cabling. All of this was done in a two to three

week window.

The second tour was called AIMS (Allegiance inventory management system)

which involved installing on board computers on their fork-trucks, along

with wireless transponders and receivers which implemented a new barcode

system for more efficient product management.

The final tour throughout The U.S. Was building a robotics packaging line

to send rush orders out overnight to hospitals. This is a very sate of the

art process.

I Took leadership with Inland electric in building Sunrise Assisted Care in

Buffalo Grove from the start to the finish. This is a great senior living

facility.
