About Greg Petruska

Passionate entertainment professional with almost two decades experience in EHS management within TV, Film, Digital Media and Live Theatrical productions as well as global HR/Training and Development. Extensive skillset in presentation and training to high-level executives and small and large groups. Capable of building strong relationships and problem solving across all levels of an organization. I believe in the importance of EHS and the larger impact it can have within the entertainment community. Too many times we shout safety and whisper health, and we need to right that balance.
