During my twenty-two years as an electrician, I have worked in the residential, commercial and industrial sector but have an advanced working knowledge in the commercial sector. My experience has included fault finding, panel wiring, alarms, construction and installation, management of other electricians, materials ordering and receiving, reading and interpretation of specifications and drawings, OSHA knowledge and NEC documentation.
I possess a Master Electrician license through the DOR in Virginia and updated NEC. Over the years, I have gained not only electrical and maintenance expertise but also solid experience in project management, new installation/maintenance and human resources. I also have advanced knowledge of the commercial standards and regulations even though my experience extends into industrial (up to 440V) and residential.
I am an organized and committed worker, as well as an instructor for newly hired apprentice helpers/electricians. I have a proven track record of delivering excellent work to tight deadlines, cut cost without compromising safety or quality and I pride myself on the quality of my work. I am easy going with a positive attitude with clients and colleagues.
I am a non smoker; non drinker, non drug user, non jail bird and I do have a clean driving record. I would like to relocate to North Carolina, South Carolina or Florida and maintain my career with a solid company. Will transfer any and all paperwork needed.
I look forward to hearing from you to discuss the position further. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Kind regards
