In 2018 I was requested by Ascent Resources to develop and lead a security program for the company.
I was assigned to work with Ascent Resources senior Vice President and General Counsel to developed a Site Security, office security and drug/alcohol testing SOP.
Prior to joining Ascent, I was assigned by The Ohio State Patrol to act as a liaison and handle any and all issues associated with the oil and gas industry from 2012-2018, that had started operations in the state. The Governor's office, the Director of Public Safety and the State Highway Patrol recognized a need to have someone assigned to deal with these issues full time after observing some of the issues that other states had encountered.
I was tasked with developing the position from the ground up with an initial focus on traffic and community safety. Position evolved over time and I started to focus on activist/terrorist groups and the disruption that they were intent on causing critical infrastructure.
Established numerous points of contact with many of the companies involved in this industry as well as federal, state and local law enforcement. Became part of a network of law enforcement and private security professionals to monitor crime tends.
