Experienced electrical technician specializing in power systems, maintenance, and safety compliance.
What I'm looking for
I am an Electrical Technician with nine years of experience delivering reliability and uptime for critical facility systems. I focus on preventive and corrective maintenance, safety compliance, and technical documentation to minimize downtime.

I have executed grounding system design, load balancing, and power quality optimization at multiple substations.
I have a Master of Engineering in Electrical & Electronic Engineering and certifications in electrical systems management, business management, and foundational networking and cybersecurity topics. I combine technical depth with clear communication and strong safety practices (LOTO, PTW, PPE).
I deliver measurable results: diagnosing and restoring over 200 transformers, reducing false trips through relay calibration, improving exam pass rates as a teacher, and driving maintenance efficiency in oil & gas and utility environments.
