Work History
Head Plant Operator , 03/2009 to 12/2015
Fedex Cross Border – Waite Park
As the head plant operator for the Knott County Regional Treatment Plant I had many job duties and responsibilities. My first and foremost was running the treatment facility. The plant took water from a surface water source, Carr Creek Lake, and we used an actiflo treatment process to remove as much turbidity as possible before filtration. Then the finished water was chlorinated and fluoridated before being pumped into a large storage tank to be dispersed throughout the county as well as other counties and wholesale buyers. The process is very involved and required constant monitoring and changing. I trained others and new employees on how to operate all the different processes of the treatment system. I also recorded all daily work into log books for easier communication to other shifts as well as keeping a good history of issues and resolutions for issues within the plant. I continuously monitored and sampled water at different points in the process to ensure efficient treatment. I done all lab work and extensive reporting to our governing agency, Kentucky Division of Water. There were many reports due each month that I completed, such as water withdrawals, monthly operating reports, and consumer confidence reports due annually. I always reported to a board of directors each month as well. I overseen projects, big and small, I worked with engineers and contractors, and day to day customers and coworkers. I generated work schedules for plant operators and adjusted as needed. I was in charge of all ordering of any chemicals, distribution needs, office supplies or anything else that was to be ordered. I also kept a good housecleaning schedule for all employees and work areas to keep a nice looking, professional work place that all visitors were impressed by.

Owner, 05/2005 to 09/2011
Accor Hotels – Wailea , HI
I owned and operated a small lawn care business that operated mainly in the local area or within 60 miles of it. I employed two other workers as well as myself, depending on how many jobs that were to be completed. I initiated this business by word of mouth. I mowed grass, cut weeds, and landscaped on my own during summer months. As I took on extra jobs I was able to invest back into the business to buy more equipment and also pay another worker, which allowed me to take on more and larger jobs. We mostly mowed and cut weeds but gradually began working landscaping jobs as well. I really enjoyed seeing how great a place looked after we had finished and the customers were always so encouraging and appreciative of the finished product. I did do some marketing and advertising. I placed flyers at local businesses and also handed out business cards to customers and potential customers. It was very enjoyable work and was very successful during summer months but it was seasonal work.
