SUMMARY OF EXPERIENCE

 

PORTAGE                                                                                                                                                         ES&H  Rep.

2011-PRESENT

 

I am currently working as a project Safety and Health Representative for Portage at the Moab UMTRA project. This project has given me valuable experience in working in the DOE environment. I have gained extensive knowledge in the ISMS process and how it is used to ensure worker involvement in the planning and executing work. I have become familiar with DOE’s high expectations for safe sustained production. In my role at the Moab project I have been responsible for IH sampling, developing plans and procedures, planning and over site of hoisting and rigging activities, heavy equipment operations, and rail transportation of hazardous wastes. I have been the site safety officer providing coverage for all operations including BBS steering committee and Safety Committee teams. My strong points include the ability to communicate effectively with craftsmen, management and the DOE customer. My experience in construction gives me a solid working knowledge of how to integrate safety into work activities in an efficient and effective way utilizing procedures, standards and worker feedback. I enjoy applying a common sense approach to

A safe work culture, I also enjoy a challenging project that lets me step out of the normal routine and implement new work steps in a way that is safe, compliant and easy for the workforce to understand.
