“As a physical therapist working in a variety of settings, I have experience in assessing the causes of injury with a focus on ergonomic and mechanical hazards. My degree in Biology and Psychology helps me to understand biologic and chemical exposure risks and human behavioral factors. As a safety professional, I have the joy of using these experiences to help prevent injuries. My goal is to partner with our policy holders to optimize their safety programs and safety culture for a more fulfilling and productive workplace.”
