SUMMARY OF EXPERIENCE

Over 20 years of experience in a variety of roles within the oil & gas industry, mainly on site for oil rigs as a motorman, derrick hand, & floor hand.

I am a strong communicator with the ability to communicate clearly & effectively in many mediums: by email, verbally, over the phone, and with body language. Communication also includes listening skills and the ability to follow directions and provide feedback when asked. Furthermore, I have a strong work ethic and ensure that I do what I was hired to do, meet the targets and deadlines outlined by the company and always work to the best of my ability. In addition, I am motivated and like to take on challenges with minimal direction; when I see something that needs to be completed I react accordingly.

I pride myself on being a strong team player who gets along with my colleagues; having the ability to work with others effectively in a variety of circumstances. The combination of my experience and skills makes me a great addition to any team! EXPERIENCE
