Started my career off in the "CO-OP' trades program in Fort McMurray, Alberta as a welder. Received great work experience in Central Shops(Syncrude Canada Ltd.), one year at Edmonton Exchanger Fab shop in Edmonton, Alberta and my final year in Bucketwheel Hydro(Syncrude Canada Ltd.). Was hired from the program into the Tailings area of Syncrude. Spent 6 years welding in which I carried many different welding tickets with many different types of welding. From there, I moved into Planning. Took a break from the Oil and Gas industry for a few years where I earned my Real Estate license. Traded Real Estate in Edmonton, Alberta for a few years, decided to go back to the Oil and Gas industry. I joined Syncrude Canada Ltd. once again in the North Mine as a "Whole Train" Maintenance Shutdown Planner/Scheduler. I joined Suncor Energy in Calgary, Alberta in the OPP area as a Specialist in Progress & Planning. I have now moved into a Project Controls Team Leader position.
