Professional Summary

I'm a Certified Welder from ACTC. I've done GMAW, FCAW, with Bend Tests. Passed G1-G4 & F1-F4 in both Flux & 35/45 Hardwire. I want to get out there & learn as much as possible from people with experience to better myself for my career moving forward. I want to hit the road and travel while making a name for myself to eventually get to a point in my career to do underwater welding. Willing to relocate: Anywhere
