What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level position to further my career in tech. I am currently in school for Information Technology which I will be taking a step further and pursuing Cybersecurity.

I’m a Construction Worker focused on removing and replacing faulty building structures, including loadbearing components, and building new construction through framing and precise hands-on work with power tools.

I also bring field-tested protection and emergency-response experience. I’ve worked as a Firefighter 1 with CalFire on a handcrew at Happy Valley Fire Center, and I serve as a Combat Medic (EMT, CLS, BLS certifications) with the National Guard’s 649th Engineering Company.

Beyond construction and firefighting, I’ve installed residential and commercial HVAC units and systems, worked as a Hydraulics Technician repairing hydraulic lines/pumps/cylinders on heavy equipment, and supported operations that require coordination, safety, and customer/service awareness. I continually build capability through Fire Academy coursework and FEMA incident-management training (ICS/NIMS/NRF) to stay ready, accurate, and reliable.
