I am a very business orientated individual I grew up on an auto parts yard ran by my grandfather. He started teaching me everything he could at a very young age. I drove tractors before I could reach the peddles, he would get it going in a low gear and step off and come back to check on me later in the day. I was 6 years old when he first put me in a skid steer. I was 8 years old the first time I drove a rubber tire loader without someone in the cab with me. He taught me everything mechanical and equipment based he could before he passed away. I strive to one day make as many accomplishments as he did, coming from nothing and being one of the top 10 in Hillsborough. I try to be the solution to problems and not the cause of them, nobody is perfect but I strive for perfection. I currently work at a job that does not take advantage of my skills and looks down on me trying to be a better help than my required work. I would much rather work for a company in need of my skills and somewhere with the possibility of growth within the company.
My general duties consist of removing and inspecting all parts from all makes and models for resale purpose. I also run a split schedule driving their tow truck on night and weekend rotation calls for city of Durham. On occasion when needed I fill in for multiple other positions such as fork lift operator, rubber tire loader operator, and general repair on company vehicles, equipment, and facility's.
After working for a tree company in the past I returned to that field with my own business start up with a small crew. Mainly specializing in large removals but also pruning work with bucket trucks, skid steers, excavators, backhoes, and the occasional 40 ton crane. I still presently do tree care for repeat customers but have worked my way out of it due to complications with my physical health.
At enhancement solutions we specialized in the tree removal grading and erection of large-scale solar fields, as well as maintaining and keeping them up after final construction was finished. y duties there consisted of running excavators, off road dump trucks, skid steer, occasionally feeding large tub stile grinders, and occasionally running dozers. in the maintenance area consisted of use of mini ex and skid steers to regrade and alter water flow issues, I also ran spray rigs for large scale vegetation growth reduction.
My duties were to drive trucks and trailers hauling debris and equipment, operation of that equipment also main bucket truck operator and tree feller.
I am versatile in many fields involving the trade industry I have a lot of mechanical knowledge ranging from small engines up to working on most all types of equipment I have experience in hydraulic repair, electrical repair, welding repair, and fabrication I can operate most any machinery but am skilled with skids steers, backhoes, tractors, excavators, rubber tire loaders, and forklifts I also am very skilled with chainsaws possibly better than I am with a pen or pencil
i have wreck master certification, and i also have certification in the safe operation of excavators.
