Dealt with the acquisition and construction of personal properties to fix and build to the clients standards and vision.

I have got the opportunity to learn and implement many different types of carpentry skills and build great spaces for clients that them and their families will be able to enjoy for years to come.

I went to a real estate investment school to acquire knowledge about many different types of investment strategies.

I started a company that dealt with facilitating the safe transport and delivery of high end power boats and other equipment designated for delivery to clients.

• Skilled at working independently and collaboratively in a team environment.
• Demonstrated respect, friendliness and willingness to help wherever needed.

• Worked for Laborers union local 96 in Chicago for a large Oil pipeline company Electric conduit which was a sister company of Midwest pipeline.
• I worked alongside other laborers and heavy machinery operators in and around refineries and other large facilities that were producing and distributing oil and gas.
• Listened closely and worked with foreman's , engineers and line architects, welders and operators to dig safely, and construct pipelines and put them in the ground.
• Also worked to take out and replace old sections of pipe.
• Assisted with the transportation and loading/unloading of materials onto trucks for efficient movement between job sites.
• Contributed to successful project completion by maintaining clean and organized work areas.
• Laid out materials for efficient project work.
• Appropriately fitted pipes by identifying dimensions, sizes, and shapes needed to replace faulty pipes.

Worked for and company that created a technology that was able to test the pipelines thicknesses and see how much corrosion has been affecting certain sections of pipeline.

We would walk along sections of pipeline that the oil companies felt needed to be checked for corrosion and took reading on the pipe to understand which sections were going to need to be replaced.

I used a locating device to find track and understand the depth of the pipe and relay information to individuals that were testing the thicknesses.
