I was born and raised in Long Beach, CA. I grew up learning about the outdoors from my Dad and uncles where I learned lessons like etiquette, sportsmanship and humility. Since then I've developed a deeper appreciation for all outdoor activities and sports. 
I carry many of those traits with me on a daily basis to motivate myself and learn about my surroundings and those I work or interact with. I tried the junior college scene out for a few semester before stepping away to work in construction. After being laid off I decided to go back to school to attain an associate science degree. After accomplishing that branch of my education I am now looking to get back to a full time, permanent position somewhere. 

I was a biological monitor on a dredging project in the Anaheim Bay and Huntington Harbor. Job duties consisted of monitoring dredging to ensure compliance with various project permits to reduce impacts on marine mammals, sensitive bird species, and sea turtles at a  minimum. I observed, classified, and recorded all my observations on FormConnect and coordinated with the contractors and county inspectors on the project.


Biological Monitor 

I worked as a scientific aid on a desert bighorn sheep recovery project in the Mojave National Preserve. 
The duties I performed were: Using radio telemetry and optics to locate desert bighorn sheep in the field. I evaluated and observed bighorn sheep for visual symptoms of disease. Monitored survival and determined lamb:ewe ratios and survival. In the case of a mortality, I used telemetry to locate, document and sample the carcass and retrieve tissue samples to test for disease. Hiking long distances, in hot weather with several pounds of gear in a backpack. Provided assistance with the capturing and relocating of bighorn sheep, collection of fecal and other samples to test for nutrition and genetics. I provided assistance on radio telemetry flights and aerial surveys when needed. I maintained field equipment and vehicles, and organized field data sheets. I kept up-to-date records on all field observations and input them into the computer database using Excel.

I was a Construction Craft Laborer for a construction company that completed several freeway alteration and water treatment and desalinization projects
My duties on these projects consisted of: Regularly using a shovel, hammer, and broom to assist or complete daily tasks. Operated pneumatic and power tools safely. Certified to and operated smaller heavy equipment like forklifts, bobcats and skip loaders as well as worked alongside heavy earth moving equipment like scrapers and bulldozers while maintaining a safe working environment. Assisted in grade checking, setting hubs, using laser leveling equipment to set grade for on and off ramps as well as surface streets and sidewalks. Poured concrete and set form boards. Worked day and night shifts doing traffic control on freeways and surface streets. Dug trenches for various water lines and drain pipes for water treatment and desalinization projects.
