In 2006 I moved back to eastern North Carolina and began operating heavy equipment and finishing concrete. I continued operating equipment and finishing concrete until 2013 when I began working in the Telecommunications industry doing line and antenna installation. Im Comtrained, I have my Osha 30, and I'm CPR and firstaid certified.

Experience

Tower Tech/Tophand

I began working at Global Technical Solutions LLC in February of 2013. I installed and was certified to install Ericsson technology for the Sprint New Vision project. I also did some structural beef ups while employed there. Ie, replacing x-bracing and horizontals.

In May of 2013 I went to work for Sabre Industries LLC. While at Sabre I continued to do L&A. After several months of L&A I was moved over to the decomm division where after one month I became acting foreman of my decomm crew.

October of 2014 I went to work for 4G Communications LLC. I did Verizon 850 swaps for a couple months then moved on to Sprint 65 mhz.

In 2016 I worked with a small outfit called AB Comm LLC. With AB I was doing anything from decomming and/or flying gates to Verizon AWS builds. Later when AB ran out of work I went to work for Towercomm LLC. Since I've been with Towercomm I've been doing Verizon and T-mobile. I'm currently certified with Nokia for the T-mobile build. Cert includes both installation and commissioning & integration.
