I have been in the Construction Industry since 1999 and love everything about it. I started as a labor and moved my way through this industry becoming a framer, then finishing carpenter to today a Superintendent. I enjoy being on the site and problem solving on the spot to keep projects going. Aside from work been married for 16 years with two great kids. I play hockey and in the summer, there is nothing better than a round of golf.
Thank you taking the time to look over my resume and I look forward to hearing from you.
