Summary
I am knowledgeable on how to rig on to complex structures and materials. Lift plans are a priority before any lift is made to ensure the safety of not only myself and the crane operator, but also for the workers who I will be flying the load to. If I am unsure on the best way to rig material, I am not too prideful to ask for advice or a different opinion.

Work History
Rigger

- Assembled rigging equipment for various construction and maintenance projects.
- Inspected rigging tools to ensure proper functionality and safety compliance.
- Communicated lifting techniques and procedures to crew, ensuring safe and efficient operations.
- Built and assembled modules for holding pipes ranging from 20" to 50" in diameter, supporting project requirements.
- Coordinated tandem lift for completed and QC-inspected modules onto shipment trailer, facilitating timely delivery.
- Lifts of modules mainly consisted of the use of spreader bars built specifically for that module. If fault occurred in the manufacture of the bar, I would use chain falls and chokers that fit the weight of the module to help balance the load to make it level for transport.
