Skills & Abilities

Welding

Being a fabricator on shuttle cars for underground coal mining, I used the Dual shielded flux cored process as well as stick welding in open environments hot, cold, wet, and dry.

I can created oil tanks from plate steel, pipe fittings, and piping, as well as construct bracing from plate and bar stock steels to protect key components.

Fabricate mounts for various motor hangers and their accessories.

I am able to conduct repairs on other large industrial equipment including mechanics, cutting, and welding on gantry cranes, bulldozers, Excavators, fork-lifts, etc. All being done to the corresponding welding code.

MECHANICAL SKILLS

I can drill and tap holes to properly fit bolt sizes.

Repair small gasoline engines (Welding Generator combo) including the cleaning of the carburetor.

replace any major motor components.

Fully disassemble a hydraulic system, repair its O-rings, hoses, valve banks, motors, pumps, and re-assemble

it without any faults.

MANAGEMENT

I control ordering of all stock (Welding wires, steels, and all other components) for my department keeping up with inventory levels, and reordering appropriately to keep for completely running out.

I have been a crew leader of 5 people at a time.

I Instruct classes of up to 19 welders at a time.

I have taken multiple classes for professional development training (Title 9, FERPA, Classified Documentation, and Sexual Harassment).

as well as keep personnel informed on the completion of my project.

LEADERSHIP

I lead students daily to keep them on task and help them achieve their goal of obtaining an Associate’s Degree.

Other Technical Skills

I do Non-destructive testing on welds using the red dye penetrant testing, magnetic particle testing.

Destructive testing using the bend test method, Tinius Olsen tensile tester, and the nick-break test for inclusion/defect detection.

I am OSHA certified with a 30 class in industrial safety and I have my id card.

I can troubleshoot hydraulic systems.

Control EPA water outlets for safe sampling and testing.

Forklift operations and their safety.

Bobcats and bulldozers on flat and unlevelled land.

Maintaining fluids of all the equipment so nothing burns up or gets damaged.

Preform fire watches after the crew leaves to make sure that it is in fact safe to leave.

CPR Certified

Hobbies:

My personal hobbies are abundant and quite broad. I enjoy fishing as my primary hobby, I go every chance I am given always hoping to catch a state record.

My second hobby is recreational riding on the dirt roads of my area hunting rare wild plants in the spring and hunting in the fall.

My third is a mix of blacksmithing where I forge knives and decorative art, and potting where I throw and kiln harden ceramics for decorative pieces.

Volunteering:

My volunteering is primarily in the summer around different water sources in my spare time. I try to clean the trash and debris from water outlets while out on my boat allowing the fishing habitat to be a safer and cleaner place for generations to come.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration of me as an option, I am rarely sick and never miss a day of work, all while maintaining a good happy personality along the way. As a part of your company I will do everything I absolutely can to better the company itself.
