Davin work for me as a Lead Quality Inspector in which time he was an asset to the team. He brought with him a good foundation of previuos experience and good team work attitude. He a great ability to document the activities accurately that he oversees. He will be a good asset to any team that he joins.

Davin was a huge asset to the work we performed for the City of Chicago. He helped train and supervise a group of inspectors that were responsible for concrete, soil and lab testing. He was able to cover a large area of work competently and with minimal oversight. He gained the respect of the owner's quality assurance staff by performing top notch inspection, testing and problem solving. His knowledge and leadership was greatly appreciated.
