Relevant General and Specialized Experience                                                                             I have over 20 years of experience in the telecomm and low voltage field, from planning and installation, testing, maintenance and quality control.  I received my RCDD in 2010. I only had one project come in late in my long career due to unforeseen circumstances, but it was not over budget.  My QA/QC expectations of my men and other contractors are very high.  I was always assigned the larger, high profile projects because they knew it would be done correctly and very pleasing aesthetically.  I am very well versed in all aspects of low voltage; VOIP, fiber, Cat 6A.  My background is also in intercom, CCTV, CATV, wireless, security, A/V and some fire alarm.  I have been designing telecommunications rooms; ER’s and cable paths for well over 10 years. I had a DOD secret clearance.  I use Microsoft Outlook, word, excel and Blue Beam.  I also have some limited experience with Visio.

I have been involved in pre-construction meetings, approving submittals, answering RFI’s.  I am going to all the weekly GC meetings and will be doing all the QA for the airport.

I am a dedicated stakeholder in the new WIFI project here at the Airport.  I designed and built a BOM for this project which is 1.8 million dollars, including new cable tray throughout the airport. I have also been involved in writing the technical specs and schedule. Once this goes out for bid, I will also be a member of the Evaluation committee, involved in the bid acceptance process.  I will be doing QC of all contractors on this project also.

I am currently doing QA on all the contractors involved on the new DAS project. I am involved in all meetings, which all of the large cell phone carriers are in.  This will be the largest indoor DAS system in the world when complete.  All these larger projects while involved in around 15 other small ones are all going on.  I am getting some Visio experience here also.
