To Whom It May Concern,
I am a dependable and hard-working ironworker and have worked consistently in the field since 2009. I graduated from apprentice to journeyman in 2013 and have worked on many large projects since then such as erecting skyscrapers, sports domes, and bridges. I have also worked in a natural gas facility and a nuclear processing plant so am extremely comfortable in high-risk environments.
I have recently relocated to California to be closer to family and am interested in securing a position that would allow me to remain on the West Coast. I think my skillset would be an asset in the Tower Technician position and would greatly value the opportunity to discuss the position with you in detail, and I thank you in advance for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Derek A. Huffman
