Hey everyone! I design, redesign, and fix websites for businesses and creators. If your site needs a refresh or some quick fixes, I’m offering budget friendly help while building my portfolio. Happy to help just reach out!

Hey everyone 👋 Glad to be here. I’m a website designer, I help with building new sites, redesigning old ones and fixing things that aren’t working properly. I enjoy helping founders and community owners make their sites look clean, simple and actually convert. Looking forward to connecting, learning from you all and adding value where I can.

Step 1: Research the industry of interest. -> Before you even apply or consider applying to a position learn the basics of that specific industry. My advice join a few Facebook groups, communities like this, subscribe to newsletters or podcast that are specific to that industry. Last thing you want to do is put money towards a program or training and end up not liking it. Use the resources readily available to you. Step 2: Build Relevant Skills. -> After you have done your research, you will learn that there are some industry specific trainings that are needed (OSHA, NFPA70E, etc.). Alot of these trainings are offered all over the country from a range of $1,000-$5,000. If you are fortunate enough to have some money saved up to invest in yourself, it will make a huge difference on the hiring process. Just make sure those are the training needed. Now you don't always need to pay out of pocket. Most companies will provide you with all the trainings needed but it definitely helps to get your foot in the door and meet people. Step 3: Network: -> This step ties into Step 1, and 2. The more you grow the network the better your chances are. I have hired multiple people that simply had the courage to come in and ask if I was hiring, and if I wasn't hiring chances are I knew someone close by that was. Network, Network, Network. Do not be afraid to reach out to people and simply ask the question. Worse thing that can happen is they say no. Step 4: Apply for Entry Level Roles: -> Once you are ready, your resume is polished, and you have practiced interviewing apply for the entry level roles. Expect not to hear back, expect to get denied. Do not get discouraged, remember you are not the only one trying to obtain those jobs, and chances are you are not the only one the employer is looking at. I can tell you though if you have a clean resume, and you learn how to interview well your chances are going to go up. Alot of people don't think about the importance of a resume and an interview. First and second impressions are everything make them count.

Integrity is one of the most critical values in the wind industry, especially when working on turbines. It’s a mindset that ensures work is carried out safely, responsibly, and to the highest standards. Unfortunately, integrity isn’t always practiced consistently—we’ve all seen situations where tasks are performed incorrectly or not performed at all. Maintaining integrity means doing the right thing even when no one is watching. It’s about following procedures, reporting issues honestly, and never cutting corners. This commitment is vital because it protects not only your safety but also the safety of your team and the reliability of the turbine for the next technician. When integrity is upheld, we create a culture of trust and accountability that strengthens the entire industry. What do you see with people you work with and their integrity?
