ELECTRICIAN
Professional Summary

I am an electrician with a combined 27 years of experience. After I graduted from high school, I enlisted in the United States Marine Corps; my MOS was Marine electrician. After serving four (4) years in the Marine Corps I began my 23 year career as an electrician. Prior to 2014, I lived in Louisiana. While living in Louisiana I obtained my Master's electrician license and owned my company - Valor Electric. My training in the U.S. Marine Corps and post military work experience has taught me to be a dependable electrician skilled in performing preventive and regular maintenance work on electrical systems, with exceptional ability to adapt to new technology and concepts.
