SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS
Member in good standing of Local Union 608 for 23 years. Started as an apprentice and was promoted to Foreman and then Field Superintendent, doing all phases of drywall construction, as well as outside construction and protection work. I can think on my feet and have good problem-solving skills that pertain to this type of work, where solutions are not always obvious. I enjoy contributing to a good team dynamic, supporting and completing the collective goals of the general contactors and safety alike. I look forward to solving problems with a positive attitude. Throughout my 35-year career in NYC high rise construction, I have worked as a Union Carpenter for 23 years and a Site Safety Manager/Fire Safety Manager for 12 years. This includes working on many notable high rise and historic structures such as; World Trade Center, Carnegie Hall, George Washington Bridge, Harlem Children’s Zone/Promise Academy, Deutsch Bank, Fresh Direct (Bronx). I am a team player with strong communication skills that will represent your company in the most positive light. I am an independent worker with a strong knowledge of OSHA standards and an eye for detail. I will perform careful observation of construction site activities to include: verify required safety documents, check for potential safety issues, conduct random on-site safety inspections and report any violations, respond to safety emergency issues, remain up-to-date on safety standards and confirm that safety regulations are being followed, conduct daily audits/inspections to ensure compliance with regulations.
