What I'm looking for
I am an experienced and driven solar professional with over five years in the solar industry. My journey began as an installer, where I quickly advanced to managing my own crew and training new employees. I have developed a strong understanding of the solar process and am always eager to expand my expertise. Currently, I am enrolled in the PMI PMP Certification course to further enhance my project management skills.
Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including Foreman and Electrical Apprentice, where I successfully managed projects, trained new employees, and collaborated with management to develop standard operating procedures. My ability to overcome challenges, such as language barriers while training a crew, showcases my commitment to fostering a productive work environment. I am passionate about contributing to the growth of the solar industry and am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead.
