Due to an illness in my family I had to remain in the Ardmore, OK area. There are no technical positions in this area of the country so I took contract work for various tasks from design of a battery charging system for emergency responders to design of a water purification system using limestone to harden soft water in Saudi Arabia. I also supplemented my income with general construction. This included electrical system installation and maintenance to framing and finish carpentry, roofing, flooring and plumbing. Basically, I can build a house from the ground up.
