I am certified as a Canadian Registered Safety Technician (CRST) through the Board of Canadian Registered Safety Professionals (BCRSP). I have also completed the British Columbia Institute of Technology's Construction Safety Officer (CSO) Program, and am a certified National Construction Safety Officer (NCSO) through the BC Construction Safety Alliance (BCCSA).

I am also a certified instructor through 3M Safety Training for both Fall Protection and Confined Space training.and an ITA ticketed Journeyman Steep Slope Roofer.
