With 32 years of mining industry experience, my background includes a diverse range of skills in underground and processing operations. I excel at collaborating with individuals from all backgrounds and am recognized for my strong work ethic and deep understanding of mine safety in an ever-evolving industry. As an underground operator for 15 years, I gained valuable hands-on experience before transitioning into an occupational health and safety role at Barminco. In this position, I combined pragmatism with adaptability to consistently improve safety records. I then progressed to senior roles with Barminco and Perenti in HSE&T, successfully managing large teams in Australia, Africa, and North America. I ensured compliance with in-country regulatory requirements and strategically planned safety improvements in risk management while continuously enhancing HSE management systems.
