Industry Experience

Since graduating high school and being in university, I have worked a number of industry related jobs. After high school, I worked in the electronics manufacturing space as an assembler, then moved on to electronics repair and troubleshooting. Later down the road I worked as a communications installer, where I installed mobile radios in vehicles and programmed mobile radios and relays. I then went on to do two eight-month co-ops (internships) for my engineering degree in the avionics and military contracting industries respectively.
