SUMMARY

My experience with the utilities business covers 35 years of working with a public utility, or

working with equipment suppliers – from relays to test equipment; also programs involving

automated testing or relay settings, SKM, Aspen, SEL programs and General Electric programs.

I became substation foreman, running my own crew within five years; possessing exceptional

trouble shooting skills and developing training for new technicians; familiar with microprocessor

relays. I was successful in assisting with test equipment sales and assisting customers to utilize

equipment at satellite offices. I am also skilled in addressing large groups and proficient on SEL

software and the testing of SEL products, which eventuated in many customer contacts in the

utility industry.

Provided training and assisted with the introduction of the 4000 series relays to customers;

assisted with establishing testing as a function in our application engineering group.
