Summary
I have been a welder at Volvo Trucks for 8 years, but have more welding experience outside of Volvo Trucks. I am experienced in pipe welding, tig welding, MIG and stick welding. I am currently attending New river community college, I am working toward a associates degree in Instrumentation and controlled automation. I've currently got a little bit of experience using Oscilloscope , and IC chips to wire up certain things. I have also used multisim to draw a print of certain wiring diagrams.
