Nac Seaside is a concrete restoration and building company. This is my first and only position in the construction industry, and I have learned a great deal from this company. As a laborer, I perform daily maintenance on ground support equipment such as air compressors, high-reach lifts, and large forklifts. We do demolition of concrete walkways, balconies, columns, and other structures. Once the old brittle concrete is removed, we form the repair using lumber, and then we pour fresh concrete, strengthening the building like new. After the pour, we later the repair with the material it calls for, walls are stuccoed, floors have a finishing layer, as well as paint for the finishing touch. At NAC Seaside we use various hand tools, including but not limited to, 3"-7" grinders, Bosch hammers, skill saws, and mixing drills.

At Space Coast Honda I learned the basics of the automobile industry. How to perform oil changes, tire rotations, replacements, patch and repairs on all standard Honda models. This position allowed me to experience customer satisfaction for the first time.

Merritt Island Boatworks was the first company I was employed by after the United States Marine Corps. Here I held the position of Yacht Assembly Mechanic. Here I made the attempt to transfer my mechanical skills over to the marine industry. Some of my daily tasks including drilling and grinding into fresh fiberglass molds, installing engine rooms components, as well as running all of the plumbing.

As an ch53-E airframes and hydraulic maintainer for the United States Marine Corps, I learned skills and foundations to last me a lifetime. The Marine Corps bestowed upon me, the knowledge to not only to maintain all metal, fiberglass, and hydraulic components on the helicopter, also including the landing gear, but to lead my fellow junior Marines on their day to day lives learning to become better maintainers themselves. I've been apart of countless parts inventory inspections, ensuring every last aircraft component is accounted for. My maintenance resumé includes all basic qualifications, ranging from multiple ground support equipment machines, to aircraft towing, as well as the ignition of the aircrafts fourth auxiliary powerplant engine for ground troubleshooting of electronics and hydraulic systems. Often, I was elected to hold the billet of Desk Sergeant for the day, the Desk Seargent is the shift leader, he or she is the communicator with maintenance control, who directs maintenance priorities. The Desk Sergeant then relegates maintenance priorities to the shift workers, ensuring all goals are met for the shift, and that the aircraft make the flight schedule.
