Summary

To be a successful Safety Director one must believe in a strong safety culture and the benefits to an organization with a work force that goes home safely at the end of the day. To this objective I strive to be better every day.I have been with EAS Contracting L.P. as Safety Director for 14.5 yrs, and have experience with so many different aspects of construction Safety including Fall protection,Excavation protection and Safety,Critical lifts preparation,Confined space safety,Resp. Fit Testing and also D.O.T. compliance and Fleet Safety.In 2022 EAS Contracting L.P. had ZERO recordable's for the year.

My career in the Electrical Industry spans 33 years. In those Thirty three years I have gained a great amount of experience, from all aspects of the industry, including custom homes, multi-family projects {where I cut my teeth} to commercial and industrial, high-rise tenant finish, office warehouse and retail lease spaces. I have also done much work in raised floor computer rooms and work on DC low voltage systems. I have been a Leader since 1991, and in that time I have had many job duties including Project Manager, Jobsite Superintendent and team leader. I have run jobs with crews of up to 25 men and also run multiple jobs with many crews. I run a very organized jobsite, insure the safety of the job and crew and of the entire project, and I excel in keeping track of material and fixtures. I am detail oriented and a self-starter who works well independently and as a team player. I focus on the whole project, not one area. I am a very code conscious electrician and a loyal employee who likes a stable company to grow with.

Positive, proactive, and committed to ensuring workplace safety. Knowledge of OSHA regulations and risk assessment tools, implementing safety protocols and conducting safety audits. Dedicated to creating secure work environment that minimizes hazards and promotes employee well-being.
