Dennis Gonzalez
: My Resume...
Hello my name is Dennis Gonzalez and I am originally
from Long Beach, New York but have been living in Honolulu, Hawaii since
December of 2004...I currently
reside in Honolulu and have been working as an electrician since 2005. I
am also a computer technician / network consultant and have been since 1990. In
1990 my 10 year old son Raymond asked me, "How come we don't use the
computers in the library?" Since then I enrolled at
LIU Brooklyn campus for an
Upgrading and Repairing Computers continuing education course. I
followed that up with LIU
C.W.Post campus in Computer Science Dept. and started my own
business, Boot Up! Computers Inc. soon after...the rest is history.
Graduated from the ABC Apprenticeship Program Hawaii
Chapter in 2009.
Today I work with MWE - Masa Watanabe Electric a member of the
Hawaiian Electricians Local 1186 IBEW
and currently with working at Hickam Air Force Base & other military bases
building homes for the troops.
I am fortunate to have been offered
an apprenticeship & indentured into the IBEW Local 1186 Hawaiian
Electricians, July 2009 and currently a member of the
The Hawaii Electricians
Training Fund a 5 year program in my third year. I am going to
school again and grateful to have had the background I did when joining
the Union. If God takes a liking to me I will graduate in 2 more years.
I will test this year for my
Journeyman Electrician's
license with the State of Hawaii as I have surpassed 10,000 hours
necessary for license. It just goes to show, that it's never too late!
I had no idea this pic was taken at the time... my friend Bill called me
to tell me that it was in the magazine Building Industry Magazine!
