About Xavier

Structural welder with 5+ years of experience working on commercial and industrial steel construction projects. I’ve worked on structural steel fabrication and installation with companies like Crowder Construction Company and Casey Industrial, supporting the building of large-scale frameworks and infrastructure. Comfortable with reading blueprints, welding symbols, and fabrication drawings, as well as using SMAW, FCAW, and GMAW processes. Known for working safely at heights, producing quality welds that meet code standards, and getting the job done right.
