Career History:

 

C.A.S. Technical Services:  June 1992 – August 1996

I was responsible for base mapping, research, field work, manhole detailing, and final design of conduit and cable drawings.  Involved in 75% of all company projects, especially the really difficult ones.  I quickly became the most valuable asset to the company I became my boss’s “fastest ship”.  After the decline in projects from our client, Pacific Bell, I was the last employee to be laid-off out of 35 employees.

Reason for leaving:  Lack of work

 

Southwest Contractors:  August 1996 – May 1997

I then worked for Southwest Contractors, drawing construction plans for fiber optic loops around cities like Fresno, Bakersfield, and Knoxville Tennessee for Brooks Fiber Communications.  I was responsible for the drawings in the 39 mile fiber optic loop around Knoxville, Tennessee.

Reason for Leaving:  Closing of Engineering Department

 

City of Palmdale

In 1998 I proposed a plan to map into Autocad the entire City of Palmdale which I did so successfully in surveyor precision using their current tracts and records using their Tracts and Records of Survey.

 

 

Volt Information Sciences:  May 1997 – April 2001

Mainly doing cable and construction design for replacements of worn out S.A.I. for Verizon.  The project was later extended to USwest where I worked in Colorado and Arizona doing S.A.I. replacements and Drawing complete conduit and cable drawings for placements of U.S.A.M. (Universal Service Area Interface) throughout Phoenix Arizona.  Also included many other projects for Verizon and other clients.

Reason for Leaving:  Lack of work

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

HCI Inc.:  May 2001- January 2002

I was hired on with HCI in Mira Loma California in May of 2001 as an Outside Plant Engineer.  Most of my projects there involved complete design of projects to the customer’s specifications, mainly Verizon and Southern California Edison.  It was my first opportunity to deal directly with the customer where I found I had good customer ration skills, coordinating with both the customer and corresponding municipalities.   Also gave me a chance to design my own traffic control plans to the municipalities’ expectations. 

Status:  Currently on leave of absence to complete schooling.  Lack of work due to major downturn in telecommunications industry.

 

 

Marmac Field Services:  April 2002- Novermber 2002

Responsible for researching, compiling information for base-mapping involving large projects for clients such as Southwest Gas and Kinder Morgan Oil.  Assisted Engineers in completion of final product to clients utilizing Autocad 2000.  I was laid off in November of 2002 for lack of work.

 

Real Estate:  November 2002 - 2007

 

Due to the lack of work in the Telecommunications Industry and the I decided that I had to look for other means of income.  Though I have learned a lot in Real Estate that will benefit me the rest of my life I still miss the satisfaction of getting permits for an elaborately detailed fiber or copper job.  The recent downfall in Real Estate and the Resurgence of the Telecommunications Industry will perhaps give me an opportunity to get back to Tel-com.

 

 

Verizon: June 2007-2008

Quality control engineer resonsible for the inspection and grading of project relating to FTTP being turned in to Verizon from other Vendors.  The work included intricate knowledge of mostly all of Verizon's internal system including ICGS.  Also responsible for handling Delayed Requests, Creating and pricing work orders in RAMS and ICGS.  Responsible for creating permit drawings and virtually all new traffic control plans.

 

 

 

Tesinc Florida:  August 2008- November 2008

Senior FTTP engineer responsible for fielding, coordinating, designing, reviewing, permitting, and pricing of FTTP overlay projects in Florida.

Reason for Leaving:  Our main client cut their budget due to current

economic crisis.

 

Cam Communications:  December 2008 – Present

Manager or Right-of-Way, Permits.  Responsible for all permitting to

every agency where permits are needed including Encroachment designs,

and Traffic Control designs.  Responsible for training entire permitting

staff and answering to the client.  Responsible for creation and implementation of permitting Methods and Procedures.

Looking for change because:  Lack of work has forced me to look elsewhere for other opportunities.

Personal Qualities:

 

I work well with other people even under pressure or difficult situations.  I also work well with clients and municipalities.  I consider myself to have a very good work ethic which I take very seriously.  This means that I arrive on time, leave on time, am hardly ever sick, and when I come to work I come to work.  I have a squeaky clean record.  I've never used any illegal drugs in my life and I've never even been arrested (odd thing to include in a resume but considering the world we live in today…)  My easy going personality and drive to get the job done has done much to impress past employers and clients alike.  At age 36 I have learned and come to appreciate the importance of honesty, integrity, and hard work as elements that make this great prosperous system of ours work. 

 

Thank you for your consideration, I hope to hear from you soon.
