Work Experience

In my 20 years of being a Ironworker/Rodbuster I have worked my way from being a apprentice, to journeyman then started being a lead man and running a crew of 3 to sometimes 9 or more. I was a foreman for 4 plus years and then got into welding/pipe welding. I am/was a 5G certified stick welder. I started off welding SIP for metal decking on bridges, then got into pipe welding where every weld was visually inspected from them time the pipes were prepped to be fitted and the root pass was started to your last cap bead was finished. After inspector visually passed the weld it was then measured for right width and height per spec's... If weld passes visual inspection, every weld was then x-rayed in two 12 inch random spots.

16 years as a rodbuster/ironworker/ construction
I also have carpentry skills also, coming up as a rodbuster, we sometimes have to build are own forms. I have 4+ years working with wood. That's measuring, cutting and placing. I was a rodbuster foreman for 4+ years, I know how to read blueprints and have ran a crew of 7 rodbusters for 2+ years. We did a lot of tilt panels in that time. I also worked the I95 - I10 bridges from start to finish. I have quite a few trades under my belt. I sometimes had to build the forms to put our rebar in and then help pour the concrete and then finish the concrete as specified in blueprints... 20+ year rodbuster, 5 year certified welder, 5 year food handler and certified for 3 I've also done 4 to 5 year residential home repairs.

I know some electrical work, some plumbing work, have done a lot of carpet installation, tile cutting, and wood floors... Measuring, cutting, and placing of any type of flooring... I can run a crew, or just work in a crew. I work well with others, and love to learn new things. Highly motivated, safety orientated, goal accomplishing, ready to work. If I don't know how to do something, I will figure out how, and complete the task to the best of my ability. I'm not afraid to ask questions, when needed. I do like to try and figure things out myself or within my crew before having to seek more help.
