Experience

Team Lead on three projects, which required fluid and thermal analysis using Excel and GFSSP. Operator – FedEx Freight – April 2017

Verify corresponding freight tracking numbers with shipping manifest

Load the trailer for the most effective and efficient weight distribution

Verify the destination so the new weight of the trailer does not exceed the road limits

Verify the proper hazmat placards are in the correct location COOP Student – Resolute Forestry Products – May through August 2013

Assisted engineers in problem solving/troubleshooting of manufacturing inefficiencies.

Collected data from peripheral sensors and imported into Excel for data analysis and report findings to supervisor.

Assisted in design of cleaning apparatus that eliminated need to shut down equipment.

Conducted quality test from different stages of manufacturing process. Student Aid – Auburn University – January through May 2013

Assessed the cause of failed equipment, preform overhauls and implemented preventative maintenance.

Operated a scanning electron microscopes and x-ray powder diffraction. Commercial Diver/Tender – Caldive International – October 2009 through December 2010

Maintained and operated life support systems, diesel compressors, roto-screw compressors, jet pumps

(hydro pressure screw pump), hyperbaric chambers, high pressure gas bottles.

Applied diagnostic, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills to issues which would arise from working offshore, with only tools and equipment onboard the ships.

Trained new employees on hyperbaric operations.

Performed underwater excavation and media blasting on platform structure.

Performed dive operations with SCBAs.

Performed Nondestructive testing using magnetic particles, ultrasonic methods, and dye penetrants on the surface, as well as underwater.

Load and unload equipment to and from the ship.

Welder – BE&K – June through November 2008

Welded structural steel reinforcing beams, cross braces, and c-channels onto power house, as well as iron working.

Designed and created a jig to ensure steel members were straight, aligned, and oriented correctly prior to entering the precipitator for final welding. This helped to ensure the quality of the work and increased production.

Read blueprints to facilitate the progression of the jobsite when the foreman was not present so that the ironworkers could continue to be productive.
