Summary

I started in siteworks at the age of 16 as a laborer, and over the last 22 years, I have worked my way up the ranks from laborer to assistant project manager. I've been in every aspect of heavy construction and even owned my own enterprise for a few years. I believe that I would be an asset to your company because I can read and follow plans, I have great attention to detail, I understand the importance of building and following a budget, and above all, I know that time is money. I love the career path that I have chosen for myself, and I am always looking for ways to educate myself and improve my craft.
