I have attained an Associate’s Degree Electrical Engineering with an Automated Manufacturing Option from Spartanburg Community College (1998) and Associates Degree in Networking and Security Management from ECPI University (2005). I have strong interpersonal skills, work ethics, and team concepts as well as a willingness to learn, a dedication to my work and an open mind to new ideas. My experience and education in Industrial Electronics, Trumpf Laser (Welding, Brazing, Cutting), Vision Systems (Perceptron, ISRA, Keyence, Cognex, 3D Vision), Robotics (KUKA, Fanuc, ABB, Motoman, Nachi) and PLC Controls (Allen Bradley: 500, Control Logics, and Siemens7, Portal) makes me an excellent candidate for this position. I look forward to the opportunity to meet with you to discuss my interest in this position in more detail. Thank you for your attention to and consideration of my request.
