Attributes
I am a working professional who takes the term professional very seriously. I have great P.R. skills which account for a large portion of the oilfield service industry. I can handle problems and fix them in a quick and efficient manner which is a need in the oil and gas exploration business. My work ethic and my ability to learn has allowed me to move up the ranks in the oilfield more quickly than others. I have also had many commendations coming from colleagues and other well site personnel which has made me truly appreciate the importance of working as a team to get the job done, and in my opinion, is vital to a successful project.

Personal Life
I am a happily married father of three originally from the small town of St.Paul. Family is the most important thing to me. I have a passion for retro-storing older vehicles and I play a variety of musical instruments. I am active in various sports and try to maintain a healthy lifestyle within the limits of my career. I am very goal orientated and I stay on my life plan as much as possible.
