PROFESSIONAL OBJECTIVE

Continuing my career managing construction, oil and gas, or general industry work-site issues and

provide the correction of safety and environmental oversights by using the experience and

knowledge gained.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS

I have used behavior based safety as a teaching tool in new hire orientations, toolbox talks, during

site audits, and safety meetings. I have had successful results and on every safety position that I

have held, I always have workers tell me that I have helped them become successful in being

accident free. My belief in safety is to internalize safety and live it every day to make it a habit.
