Welding runs in my blood. My dad, grandpa, uncle, and mom are all welders.
My uncle Ash was my biggest inspiration to get into welding. He passed away in a fluke welding accident when I was a teenager.
My first time welding was in the 7th grade, in middle school. I fell in love instantly. I was the best in my class. I’ve been in the industry for 18 years.
My experience started in classes in middle school and high school. I then worked on farm equipment and in a repair shop and moved into trailer manufacturing. I soon became a welder helper building geothermal power plants, repairing heavy equipment and large mining equipment in Ely, NV. I bought my own rig and started doing piping and structural work on geothermal plants, drilling rigs, and oil/gas refineries. I started Elevated Fab Industries in 2020.
I started learning how to weld in middle and high school. The rest of what I learned was on the job training and last but not least, from Mr. Roy Armstrong, a 67 year old Texas Veteran that has been in the industry his whole life, taking me under his wing and teaching me everything he knows while I was his helper.

My grandpa was in industrial welding/construction his whole life. I followed him on the road at 19 years old.
When I was a helper I saw all these welders and how cool they looked. They all made tons of money and had nice rigs. I wanted to be just like them.
I’ve been welding for thirteen years.
Journeyman precision millwright, journeyman combo welder. Background in industrial construction. Worked from a helper all the way to the top. Background in logistics, planning, client relations. Built power plants and refineries all across the United States.

Welding is an art for me. There is nobody to blame except for myself if I mess up. This is my way to express myself and my skill set. I have dedicated years to learning.
I started as a stick hand. That will always be my love. Tig would be my second favorite.

I started in a steel shop right after high school and saw welding for the first time and fell in love with it.
There’s several people who I would say inspired me but my dad would probably be the biggest one. I’m the only blue collar guy in my immediate family but my dad has always taught me to work hard and take pride in it.
I started in June of 2017. Six years in the industry.
I started with building elevator parts then moved to heavy machinery repairs and small fabrication. Then built custom gates and other decorative steel. I started learning pipe welding and more complex repairs right before I started with Elevated Fab Industries.
98% of what I know I have learned from an old hand or from trial and error. I took a short welding introduction class at Dixie Tech in 2018.
I’ve done welding pretty much my whole career. I did water works for a few months then quickly realized welding is my calling.
I’d say either knocking the slack off a slick weld or having a project fit together just right is my favorite part of welding.
Preferred method of welding is stick welding for sure. I’d love to become better with tig.
I’d like to see welding become more noticed as the skilled trade that it is. Not many people can do what we can and be good at it.
My favorite part of the industry is being able to do and build things nobody else can. The experiences and opportunities I have been given are mind blowing.
2 Personal Goals
- I have wanted my own welding rig for over a year now and would like to achieve that by the end of 2024.
- I would also like to get back in the gym and get my fitness back on track.
2 Company Goals
- I would like to continue becoming a more key member of the team and growing my skills.
- I am proud to be part of EFI and help it grow and be apart of the core team.
