I will identify myself as a seasoned Safety Professional and have been in the field of Environmental, Health, Occupational, Fire & Life Safety/Security for many years and am very familiar with Facilities, Construction, and Industrial Operations, along with Industrial Hygiene, Hazardous Energy, Hazardous Materials, and Incident Command & Emergency Management. I am presently working as a Senior Loss Control Representative with Allied North America, an Insurance brokerage Company that is dedicated to the construction industry and is a premier provider of services for CCIP and OCIP wrap-ups . This position presented itself and has been advantageous as I pursue an opportunity that will allow me to relocate out of the New York area and find a new position in the South that more closely matches my diverse background.
