As an Environmental Remediation Technician, I operate three mobile water treatment systems for various projects across Toronto including the remediation of surface water on a contaminated site and treating the drill tailings on a Metrolinx project.Because these projects are new, I am optimizing chemical dosing for these new systems by performing daily jar tests on the influent water and have been adjusting other variables for the best system performance. I have authored Standard Operating Procedure documents for the three mobile water treatment facilities based on our keen observations of the system.On the Metrolinx project, I have collaborated with the client to find effective and cost-efficient solutions for various system problems.

I assessed and recorded pool chemistry values to ensure the water was safe and comfortable for bathers. If the pool chemistry needs adjusting, I calculated and implemented chemical injections into the system.After communicating with the fibreglass and lifeguard teams, I performed the start up and shut down of water attractions. Furthermore, I completed preventative maintenance throughout the day to keep the water pressure at optimal levels for the enjoyment and safety of riders.

Our crew succeeded in saving at least one cottage from burning by assembling a values protection sprinkler system around it. During the 2023 season, we assisted in extinguishing ten other wildfires, which included one in Alberta and one in the Northwest Territories. Effective communication allowed us to work safely and efficiently for a common goal.On an active fire, I diagnosed a problem with our water source pump and was able to get it running again for my crew who was at the fire line.Back at Timmins Fire base, I inspected used Fire Suppression Equipment for damage and recycled tools as per MNRF standards.

I supervised members during the Aqua Fit class to ensure their safety in the pool. I assisted in making the class run smoothly by managing equipment and attendance.

As a Window Detailer/ Christmas Light Installer, I completed meticulous work, verifying windows were spotless and lights were perfectly spaced. Before collecting payments, I reviewed the work with the customer and ensured they were satisfied. On a few jobs, I acquired additional sales by recommending other services to customers, For example, if I noticed the rain gutters were full before we began our Christmas light install, I brought it to the attention of the customer and they happily agreed to add on the service. Furthermore, I gained new customers, by engaging with curious neighbors and providing business cards with contact information. Our crew always prioritized communication and safety, especially when working on, or transporting ladders. The comradery was the most enjoyable part of the job and I helped foster the trusting, efficient crew dynamic

I supervised a group of high school-aged Indigenous youth in a work-camp environment. This program introduced varying forestry-related job opportunities, and I encouraged the youth to participate in activities to get the most out of their experience. I fostered a safe environment for youth to develop friendships and excel in tasks.

I was a liaison between Outland and the client, ensuring the client was satisfied with our work and communicating any issues to the rest of the management team.I supervised the tree quality of 50+ tree planters, providing feedback to each planter and reported any concerns to their respective crew boss.By proactively identifying issues with tree quality, I prevented substantial monetary losses to both the company and individual planters that would result from replanting trees.Our management team was always quick to help each other complete crucial tasks, allowing the operation to run smoothly.

While studying as a full time engineering student, I spent my Tuesday evenings teaching swimming lessons to young swimmers. I had objectives to teach a certain amount of skills by the end of the program, so I organized my weekly lessons in such a way that the swimmers would master the foundational skills and slowly work towards the more difficult skills. I was careful to provide each swimmer with personalized feedback and be cognizant of swimmers that were above or below the skill level of the group. In group games, I may give aids or handicaps to these swimmers to even the playing field and make the game more enjoyable for everyone

For this reforestation job, I lived in a remote camp in the bush with about 60 other tree planters and slept in my personal tent. Every day we would drive out to the massive clear cut blocks, and be given a section of land to replant. Because you are paid per tree, I set goals and planned out my days in order to make a certain amount of money, or finish a certain amount of land. I endured all types of weather conditions and learned to keep pushing even when I was uncomfortable.Usually my crew boss partnered us with another planter, and I quickly developed rapport with them, allowing us to work in a flow state with unspoken understanding.

In 2016, I started my first ever job as a Wading Pool Attendant. I was responsible for filling the pool every morning, testing the water throughout the day, adding chlorine as necessary, and emptying the pool at night. I kept diligent records of the water chemistry levels, and ensured the safety of the young swimmers.In 2017 I was a Swim instructor and taught a wide variety of levels, from Guardian classes, to youth swimmers, Lifesaving programs, and Adult lessons. With this diverse crowd, I learned how to communicate effectively and adapt my teaching style appropriately. I managed to successfully teach children with major special needs and non-English speaking people as well.In 2018, I was a Lifeguard at an outdoor pool. I supervised patrons and kept a safe pool environment through accident prevention and maintained the cleanliness of the change rooms by completing hourly cleanups.
