Special Representative
I help create work opportunities for the carpenters membership.
I'm out of the house and on the road by 4:30 a.m. I spend my days answering calls and emails in order to get out in front of projects. It's my goal to organize and create work opportunities for the membership by connecting with others, like elected officials, for example.

Take advantage of training sites. Gain as many different certifications as you can to round-out your skill set. On-the-job training and experience is the most important. You need to always be paying attention to your journeyman and focusing on gaining that knowledge and experience when learning your trade.
