4. Crowley Marine Services
During my year at Crowley my position was an Able
Bodied Seamen. For six months I assisted in operating a
tug boat across the Bering Sea. The tug boat pulled a
barge carrying fuel to the rural villages throughout
northwestern Alaska.
The fuel that we carried was a means of survival for many
of the villages. While I earned a large amount of
experience, I was also able to learn a lot about the
cultures in these native Alaskan villages.
5. Arctic Regional Slope Corporation
I began my career with ASRC in April of 2011. I am
currently located in Kuparuk, Alaska. My schedule varies
between night shift and day shifts, and requires two
weeks working and two weeks rest. While in Kuparuk, I am
learning the daily activities that go into maintaining and
operating oil wells.
While I enjoy my daily responsibilities as a Well Service
Technician, it has made me eager to become an
Operator with Conoco Phillips.

7. Education Continued
In the first steps of my post high school education, I
began at the University of Alaska Anchorage. While
doing my general studies, I focused on Civil Engineering.
The several classes required for this program has given
me insight on several possible career choices.
Next, I studied Construction Management at Northern
Arizona University. While I was extremely interested in the
intricacies that go into commercial construction, I
decided to go a different route with my education. The
knowledge that I gained during these courses, however,
was extremely valuable.
8. Education Continued
Finally, after several attempts, I found my place at the
Kenai Peninsula College. I decided to get my Associate’s
Degree in Process Technology. The decision was primarily
based on the goal to work on the North Slope as an
Operator. Thus far, I have maintained a 4.0 GPA in all
Process Technology courses.
I believe that the years I have spent in several different
majors has helped make me a well rounded student. I
have a background in several different educational
programs, which has given me knowledge beyond
Process Technology.
9. Objective & Background Information
Growing up in Homer, Alaska, I began working at a
young age. I worked on fishing charters, commercial
fishing boats, and residential construction sites around
town. I knew at a young age that I wanted to work
outside the box in a career that would be mainly hands
on. I enjoy working with people and teams, and intend to
find a career in which I can utilize my skills I have gained
throughout my life.
Through extensive research, I have decided that a
career as an Operator within Conoco Phillips is the path I
would like to pursue.
