Summary

I have over 32 years of combined manufacturing and military experience. Safety has and always will remain a top priority for me. As a GSE, I am looking forward to enhancing not only my own knowledge of safety practices, but helping nurture a strong safety culture for those I serve. I look forward to becoming a part of the GSE team and making the most out of this experience.
