Work Experience

Welder

John Deere - Wisconsin

December 2022 to Present

So my job would basically consist of watching a robot and prepping a frame by using a tool gun and putting on other pieces on this frame. Once all the pieces are on I will put the frame into the jig using a crane and fix any defects on this frame once it comes out. Picker

QVC - Florence, SC

Currently I drive the SP ( stand picking) equipment this job can be very dangerous because it’s in the air and you have to build your pallet as is. Meaning if it’s in the air several feet in the air then that’s what you have to do. I love this job because it’s very challenging but keeps my in shape. Welder/Assembler

My futures for this job was create buckets starting from scratch. I would weld up buckets our competition was John deer, this job kept. My on my toes because I had to create everything almost perfectly fabricating pieces perfectly creating a bucket. I created equipment that were used for the outdoors. Welder/Assembler

Fraizer Industrial - Lamar, SC

October 2017 to June 2019

My duties for this job was welding pallets and welding at fast paste. I would cut sized using a tape measure to make sure the sizes are the correct piece and it together to weld. I also worked on the assembly line my job was to put stickers on the tank. You will have to have the stickers as perfect as you can get them while moving at a paste so the line won’t stop.
