PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY

I am currently a Project Manager for Altorfer Power Systems, the Caterpillar generator dealer for the northern Illinois area. My responsibilities include creating site specific engine layout drawings, electrical schematics and submittal packages. I verify projects meet specifications and customer requirements, working with our customers to obtain approval and then monitor projects through startup. My experience has led to an understanding of power distribution, electrical circuits, generators and transformers. At Enercon Engineering I was a Project Engineer, designing low and medium voltage switch gear as well as controls for complex power generation systems. I was assigned the responsibility of monitoring multiple projects from design through implementation stages, as well as working with shop employees and test bay to ensure a quality product.
