  Iron Worker Local 16

  • Iron Worker

    • Jan 2006 - Dec 2014
    • 1998 Merrit Ave, Baltimore Md 21222

    I completed a three year apprenticeship where I earned my journeymen's Iron Worker card. I worked in the field for eight years as an Iron Worker. This was extremely dangerous work that required me to work on bridges, skyscrapers, and nuclear power plants. I also was a certified welder, which requires attention to detail and a high level of concentration. Iron Work also requires a high level of communication skills in order to perform dangerous work as a team without anyone getting killed or injured. I was a foreman at Brandon Shores Nuclear Power Plant. This was a high stress position where we replaced a twenty-five ton turbine in the powerhouse. I was in charge of thirty men and their safety as well as the safety of the surrounding environment because we were working so close to a nuclear reactor. One bad decision could have been catastrophic.

    I was responsible for meeting with homeowners to conduct settlements on their mortgage refinancing. I went over all the closing costs and all the creditors that were being paid off through the refinance. I was responsible for explaining all the legal documents to the customers while answering any questions for them throughout the process. I was also responsible for issuing checks to customers who were cashing out on their equity through the refinance. I was then responsible for notarizing, completing, and filling documents to complete the transaction.
