“Be The Resource”—This is my guiding principle in safety.

With 25 years of experience in industrial sales and safety training and over 17 years specializing in fall protection, I have worked with organizations across construction, utilities, wind energy, manufacturing, solar, transportation, and more to improve fall safety, compliance, and risk management.

Throughout my career at Capital Safety, 3M, Diversified Fall Protection, and now SureWerx, I have trained thousands of safety professionals nationwide on advanced fall protection systems, anchorage selection, regulatory compliance, and hands-on application techniques.

As an OSHA-authorized trainer and CHST-certified safety expert, my mission is to simplify fall protection, provide practical solutions, and help safety teams reduce injuries and costs.
