PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Welder
Headless Parrot Welding,Inc. Marine Fabrication Loxahatchee, Fl
2009- Present
Weld/Fabrication Service Manager
Rybovich Yachts West Palm Beach, Fl (2007- 2009)
Weld Shop Production Manager, Submarine Maintenance Production Officer
Mid-Atlantic Regional Maintenance Center (MARMC), Norfolk, Va (2005- 2007)
In this duty I was responsible for performance standards and process refinement of the facility’s fabrication and welding resources supporting all US Naval Submarine forces entering into Norfolk Naval Station.
1. Directly responsible for delivering cost-conscious readiness while providing industrial, engineering, technical and contracting services for maintenance and modernization of 8
submarines.
2. Planned and coordinated over 10,000 work requests (consisting of over 180,000 man-hours)
in the completion of 201 Ship’s Maintenance Availability Periods.
3. Mentored and trained 22 subordinates in technical expertise, quality craftsmanship, personal
financial health, and self-development.
4. Attained the rank of Chief Petty Officer in the United States Navy. Chief Petty Officer not only
carries requirements of time in service, superior evaluation scores, and specialty examinations,
but also carries an added requirement of peer review. A Petty Officer First Class can only advance after review by a selection board of serving Senior and Master Chief Petty Officers, in
effect “choosing their own” and conversely not choosing others. Advancement into the Chief
Petty Officer grades is the most significant promotion within the enlisted Naval ranks. At the rank of Chief, the sailor takes on more administrative duties. In the Navy, their uniform changes
to reflect this change of duty, becoming similar to that of an Officer Albeit with different insignia.

rework and repairs. I also prepared monthly reports covering non-conformance trends and problem areas.
1. Created USS Barry’s Quality Assurance program going from conception to implementation
within 3 months.
2. Bridged the gap between Ship’s Force and contractors by serving as ship’s Quality Assurance
Representative for over 300 repairs, ensuring all were completed within standards set forth in the
Joint Fleet Forces Quality Assurance Manual.
Production Supervisor/Lead Hull Technician. In these duties I served as the ship’s expert for all weld and metal fabrication jobs. I ensured all jobs were completed in a safe and timely manner and in strict compliance with MIL-STD 1688/1689, MIL-STD 248/278, MIL-STD 2035, Portsmouth NNSY 9505, NAVSEA 7000 Manual, and the Joint Fleet Forces Manual on Quality Assurance.
3. Supervised 23 shop personnel in the completion of 378 mission-essential repairs and 25
mission- critical repair jobs.
4. Performed emergent repairs to the ship’s hub and propeller assembly during ship’s deployment
in Bahrain, UAE.
5. Trained and oversaw the ship’s 20 member Crash and Salvage Team and ensured safety of 320 helicopter landings at sea.
Work-center Supervisor/Craftsman
Ship’s Intermediate Maintenance Activity, Norfolk, VA (1996- 2002)

1. Managed a division of 5 personnel in the performance of over 1800 man-hours of preventative maintenance on various shop systems.
2. With a 30 day time constraint, I assembled and managed a 50 person tiger team in the successful completion of over 50 work requests, encompassing over 5,500 man-hours during an unscheduled availability on USS Nicholson (DD 982).
3. Meticulously tracked, supervised and coordinated repairs between shops force and my personnel, achieving a 100% completion rate and vastly improving overall efficiency, productivity, and quality of workmanship for 10 shops in the R-12 Division (approximately 125
personnel).
Nuclear Power Plant Components Welder

1. Successfully weld repaired 200 high-pressure steam valves within the nuclear reactor compartments on eleven submarines.
2. Expertly performed the successful replacement and re-alignment of two submarine hydraulic accumulator piping systems, one of which had been previously attempted by two different Intermediate Maintenance Activities (a higher level maintenance facility) without success.
