Summary My experience encompasses 29 years as a precision
millwright, lead man, supervisor, superintendent, site
manager, assistant commissioning manager, and project
site manager. My success is from becoming proficient in
controlling budgets, safely operating, installing and
maintaining many styles of power producing systems and
associated auxiliary equipment. I am fortunate to have
worked on many steam, gas & wind turbines projects from
the beginning through the completed construction
process. As a project manager, I have worked directly
with ABB, Mitsubishi, and GE, & Siemens on steam, gas,
generators and wind turbine projects. I have the ability
to troubleshoot, and oversee routine maintenance and
emergency repairs on many types of mechanical equipment,
electrical systems and automated control circuits. I
consistently work toward the safest and most efficient
means of accomplishing the job, while leading the people
around me in a calm and professional manner.
