Cabling Buildout Technician 2010-2013
Traveled to hotels and performed buildout for cable installation. As the company's preferred technical communications specialist, I led walkouts detailing the process and answered client questions and concerns.
I communicated the project's process, progress, and completion to clients and relevant company officials.
I ensured that the hotel was ready for cable installation by performing an inspection and saving the client over 50% on installation fees by doing the insulation and not delegating the responsibility to another team or company.
I adhered to safety regulations that protected clients and the company from expensive fines, a major concern in the past.
