Experience

1. Senior Environmental, Health & Safety (Ehs) Leader

   Forgent Power Solutions, Inc.

   Oct 2025 — Present · Hanover, MD, US

   Senior Environmental, Health & Safety (EHS) leader with 20+ years of experience supporting field service organizations and mission‑critical electrical operations across North America. I specialize in remote and field‑based EHS leadership for organizations performing high‑risk electrical testing, commissioning, and power distribution work. In my current role, I provide EHS leadership and technical guidance to service teams and manufacturing operations involved in FAT, high‑voltage testing, generator load bank testing, and electrical work on RPUs, switchgear, panels, and power distribution centers. I work closely with plant leadership, service managers, and contractors to ensure Electrical Safe Work Practices (NFPA 70E / ESWP) are fully integrated into daily operations—without slowing the business down. My background spans data centers, industrial and commercial facilities, renewable energy, and critical infrastructure. I am known for translating regulatory requirements into practical, field‑ready solutions; leading incident and compliance investigations; and building scalable safety programs that support technicians, engineers, and service personnel working in high‑risk environments. I am most effective in remote and field‑focused roles where I can partner with operations, mentor leaders, and strengthen safety culture across geographically dispersed teams.
