Fabrication in practice · Industry photography

My understanding of steel comes from working with it.

I’ve worked as a helper, painter, welder, fitter, layout professional, and shop foreman. That foundation shapes how I read drawings, assess fabrication requirements, and think through erection costs.

Over the years, I’ve brought that practical perspective into estimating roles covering structural steel and miscellaneous metals, from smaller fabrication packages to major hotel and entertainment projects.

I value preparation, clear communication, and being someone a team can count on. Based near Ronald, Washington, I’m interested in connecting with teams across the Pacific Northwest.
