Prior to this company I have NOT had an OSHA recordable injury in over the past four years. Therefore my
Recordable Injury Rate (RIR) for the previous four years is 0.0% with over one a million man hours worked. I
am a Safety Professional who strives to keep your employees injury free and lower your company insurance,
severity rate, EMR and premiums. I specialize in analyzing job tasks and eliminating all potential hazards. I
train, certify and mentor personnel in all applicable aspects of safety.
I assisted one manufacturing/production company in achieving OSHA’s most prestigious award (The VPP
award). I believe with my many years as a Safety Manager in: Manufacturing, Construction, and Food
Processing. I can be an immediate asset to your safety program. Plus I am a big advocate of quality as I was a
Six-Sigma, Lean Manufacturing and Total Quality Management (TQM) instructor for Motorola.
I stay abreast of 1910 & 1926 OSHA standards via OSHA classroom training. I currently stay in contact with
current and ex-OSHA compliance officers and managers as we share updated information. I have extreme
knowledge of fall protection, heavy civil, machine guarding, lock-out tag-out, material handling, forklift
training, PPE, electrical, egress, ladder safety, and HAZCOM/HAZMAT safety, plus I have successfully led
safety committees, continuous improvement teams and Emergency Response Teams (ERT) and I am a
Liaison for OSHA compliance and local fire departments plus I continuously attend Arizona OSHA training
(ADOSH).
I have a Bachelor of Science (BSBM) degree in Business Management plus I have 15 years of safety
leadership experience. I possess an OSHA 500 outreach training instructor card and I conduct both classroom
and on the job-site training and certification to insure personnel fully understand his or her safety
requirements. I conduct unannounced OSHA style safety audits and all persons involved are counseled or
disciplined. I create safety programs as well as update and train existing programs to keep the company in
OSHA compliance.
As my resume and experience reflect, I am qualified and ready to make an immediate impact to your safety
