Summary

To obtain a position as a full-time Instructor with Dominion Energy Safety and Emergency Response Training

A passion for teaching has followed me throughout my entire career. I have been very fortunate to work with people who instilled in me the importance of hard work, consistent training, and to take every opportunity to pass on what I have learned so others may grow. I have spent the last 34 years working on mastering my craft. The best part is the ongoing process of learning, growing, knowledge transfer, and most importantly, teamwork. I strive to apply these skills daily. Teaching allows me to be a mentor to someone who will then share what they have learned with someone else. I look forward to learning new things so I can help others by continuously expanding our knowledge, skills, and abilities.
