Hello all!  I'm moving to Orange County (Huntington Beach/Fountain Valley) in late May/early June and am currently looking for new work.  The job market is not very strong right now, especially in job classifieds for my career field so I figured I'd put the word out any way I know how.  The best references always come from word of mouth anyway.  The reason for my move is my mother recently passed away and my sixteen year old sister needs a good and responsible guardian.  It is important to me that she finishes the rest of her high school without transition so I will be moving there instead.  So... With that said...

I am a journeyman level residential carpenter, well versed in all aspects of home construction.  Been in the business since a young teenager, minus a four year stint with the US Air Force (I'm 30yo now).  I am motivated, hard working, independent, loyal, highly skilled with good communication and learning abilities.  My experience includes new custom home construction (first rate, up to 10,000sq ft projects), existing full home remodels and additions, to kitchen or bath remodels.  Mostly rough framing and finish carpentry, but also know foundations, plumbing, electrical and everything in between.  Also have done some very beautiful and extensive deck work, including pool decks and elevated, multiple level decks.

If anyone knows of a good General Contractor looking for a good employee, please keep me in mind.  I would also be interested in cash/side jobs if anyone wants to remodel their kitchens or bathrooms.  Or if you want doors or windows replaced.  Perhaps new trim or crown molding without having to hire an expensive contractor to get the job done.

Resume, references and photo portfolio available upon request.  Thank you for your time and consideration.
