Registered member of the Alberta Regional Council of Carpenters and Allied Workers, Local 1325 as both a Journeyman Carpenter and a Journeyman Scaffolder since 1995. I have a strong work ethic and take pride in a job well done. I recognize the importance of establishing and maintaining strong working relationships with the client while balancing effective supervisory relationships with the crews within the parameters of the union contract. As a result of these relationships, I am proud of the fact that since becoming a member of the union I have always been “name hired” based on my work ethic, scaffolding and construction ability, communication skills, supervisory skills and professional attitude.Throughout my career, coordination has figured prominently in many of my supervisory experiences including determining scaffolding requirements, estimating hours required to build and dismantle scaffolds, prioritizing work projects and monitoring scaffolding projects to ensure the work is being done in a timely, cost effective manner on behalf of the client.
