Description
Summary: I began working in the oilfield a few weeks after graduating high school at the age of eighteen. I was on a workover for just over a year when things slowed down and I had to move on. While there I was promoted for my natural decision-making abilities and leadership abilities. Since that time I have honed my skills through knowledge and strove to learn in every situation. I broke out on drilling rigs in 1994 as a floorman. I have since worked through all positions as far as toolpusher. I have always worked well with others and in leadership worked to lead with confidence that is gained through experience and job knowledge. I enjoy working in the drilling industry and look forward to every hole as a new challenge and a new learning experience.
