Comments
Currently working for Petrochem Inspection Services. I am primarily looking for Nuclear Outage work, as I have an agreement with my employer regarding such work. I've been trained in guided wave ultrasonics as well as phased array ultrasonics in addition to having been site manager at Exxonmobil Refinery in Joliet/Channahon, IL. I've been trained on GE's new DXR (digital radiography) system. Most recently I've obtained my API 570 and Level 1 Rope Access certification.
