Started my career working at Menards as morning stocker, moved up in the company to a First Assistant Shipping/ Receiving Manager. From there I took an opportunity to work at Intertek PSI as a Field Technician where I tested concrete in the field and in the lab. I was the lead technician for American Transmission Company drilled shafts and sub station projects. This opportunity as a field technician opened up the door to my current employer RivCrete Ready Mix. I started as a Batch Plant Operator in April of 2016 where I quickly adapted to the challenges and still to this day hold the record for most yards batched in one day. I batched from 2016-2023 when I took a promotion to becoming the Lab Manager due to more work place challenges, growing family and more of a work life balance.ACI Concrete Field Testing Technician - Grade I Certification
