DAVID SAM
SUMMARY:
Seasoned professional with diverse industrial/commercial construction experience spanning more than 30 years. Agriculture, Water/Wastewater, Power/Energy, Chemical, Paper Mills, Dams, Road & Bridge. Consummate “company man”. Loyal to a fault, integrity – give more than I take, honesty and a work ethic second to none. I bring many years of “in the field” experience identifying, mitigating/eliminating hazardous conditions and behavior. I pride myself on being able to “catch, correct and coach”. Having worked in the field as a craft person for many years I bring a fresh, in the trenches, aspect to interaction with other craft people. I have several years’ experience teaching orientation as well as equipment and tool safety classes.
