I have been working in the HSE field for 10 years now concentrating primarily in the area of upstream oil and gas although I have a great deal of knowledge in construction (commercial, industrial, heavy as well as multi family apartments to single family homes) downstream petroleum and fabrication facilities. This journey has given me great knowledge of drilling (on and offshore) and service rigs, power plants, pipeline, gas plants and refineries as well as seismic operations and offshore heavy lifting and construction work. I am looking to obtain further knowledge in different fields and locations around the world. Though I would like a contract position, I am also fairly flexible and would be willing and able to provide HSE advising as required. I do also carry a valid Canadian passport.
