About Me
Based out of Golden, BC but with a base in Calgary, Ab.
​
I am is a senior Health and Safety professional with a keen eye for detail. My qualifications include a PG Diploma in Leadership via the City and Guilds of London, a former military healthcare professional with NHS experience as well as several formal H&S diplomas and certificates including the advanced OH&S Diploma from UNB, NEBOSH and Lean 6 Sigma Green Belt.
​
I have detailed knowledge of legislation in both BC and Alberta and in depth experience in Mb, On, NWT and even Qc.
I hold a formally accredited teaching certificate gained whilst serving a full career in healthcare within the UK Armed Forces.
I aim to bring credibility to safety consulting. Having held senior HSEQ positions for ESS Support Services (Defence, Offshore and Remote Facilities Management) covering all of Canada and as a military senior leader within the UK Army Medical Services. In between these careers I worked in the UK North Sea providing safety support to several vessels and platforms including Drilling Inspection, Maintenance and Repair as well as Diving Operations and Wind Farm Servicing. I have thorough experience with ISO's and I am a trained ISO 9001, 14001, 45001 and Integrated Management System Auditor.
My experience of bringing proactive and positive programs leads to serious improvements in safety performance. Whether developing, reviewing or updating H&S Management Systems. Developing and delivering bespoke training or mentoring. Auditing and inspecting. Delivering a safety culture change, I can and will lead you to the place you deserve to be. I also offers Lean 6 Sigma focusing in H&S areas such as PPE standardization and induction, orientation and training consolidation.
​
Food safety is a particular strength. During his 11 years in Canada I oversaw and supported up to 30 remote camps feeding from 25 workers to 2500. Spending 10s of thousands of hours in these facilities ensuring not just food safety but also the quality the customer both expects and resources. The food safety journey started when spending over 2 years supporting the UK military inspection team in Germany between 2000 and late 2002. This then continued as my career progressed. This indeed assisted in securing a safety role offshore as one of his first vessels had recently suffered a work delay due to food borne illness.

Food Safety Inspection / Audits - Often the dreaded 'normalization" creeps in to your facility. Gaps that can become accepted by your staff can well escalate to critical PHI findings or worse (FBI outbreak). No food establishment should risk that! Do you know your Public Health Inspections are posted online in BC and Ab for all to see?

Lean 6 Sigma - project advice, start ups and delivery. Also 5S, Kaizen or bespoke Continuous Improvement projects focused on H&S and Food Safety.

Physical Demands Analysis - How can a healthcare professional determine modified work when they don't understand the physical demands of your employees regular tasks? You can avoid lost time and have your injured / ill employee contribute far more whilst recovering in a far safer work environment.
