JAMES FOXX
EXPERIENCE
I STARTED VOCATIONAL WELDING SCHOOL IN 1981 I GRADUATED 3 YEARS LATER WITH MY FIRST CERTIFICATION. THIS STARTED MY CAREER AS A WELDER. I DID SOME IRON WORKING FOR A FEW YEARS AND SOME SIMILAR WORK BE FORE I MOVED TO VIRGINIA IN THE LATTER 80 S . STARTED WORKING A FEW JOB SHOPS AROUND THE YORKTOWN AREA AND REFINED THE SKILLS I HAD BEEN TAUGHT. IN THE MIDDLE / LATER 90S I HEARD ABOUT SHIPYARD WORK. I HAD ALREADY BUILT FULL SIZE MODELS OF F-16 PLANES AND VARIOUS ITEMS FOR NASA LANGLEY. A FULL SIZE BLACKHAWK HELICOPTOR AND HAD ALSO TRAVELED TO SEVERAL POWER STATIONS AND PAPERMILLS, EVEN A SHUT DOWN AT NORTH ANNA AND SURRY NUCLEAR STAIONS. I HAVE BEEN CERTIFIED IN SS, CS, CUNI, NICU, AND AL. PIPE CERTS AND PLATE CERTS. STEAM AND HYDROLIC SYTEMS ALSO. THIS PAST OCTOBER I STARTED MY THIRTY EIGHTH YEARS OF WELDING AND FABRICATION. THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY JOBS IN THAT TIME PERIOD TO LIST DATES AND TIMES. I HAVE SKILLS AT SHEET METAL FABRICATION AS WELL AS PIPE AND PLATE. CAN USE ALMOST ANY TOOL IN THOSE AREAS. I EXCELL AT ALUMINUM WELDING, BUT I WELD ALL MATERIALS WELL. ALTHOUGH THIS IS JUST A BRIEF SUMMARY OF MY CARRER I HOPE IT WILL HELP FUTURE EMPLOYERS OF ME UNDERSTAND THE BROADNESS AND VARIETY OF HOW I CAN CONTINUE TO BE A PROFESSSIONAL AND A CRAFTSMAN. I HAVE TRAVELED FROM ATLANTIC BEACH FLORIDA UP TO THE UPPER PARTS OF NEW JERSY AND PENNSYVAINIA, WHICH ACOUNTS FOR ALL THE DIFFERENT SITES I HAVE WORKED. I HAVE BEEN XRAY QUALIFY SEVERAL TIMES ON SS. I MADE A VERY GOOD CHOICE IN 1981 WHEN I DECIDED TO BECOME A WELDER, AND I HOPE THAT OUT OF ALL I HAVE DONE, I CONTRIBUTED TO AMERICA AND MOSTLY OUR ARMED FORCES.
