I’m here to help you along on your journey towards safety betterment.  

I am father, a significant other, and a friend - first and above all else.  I’m also a safety professional, organizational culture geek, HOP nerd and HOP evangelist.  I first discovered Human and Organizational Performance during the early formative years of my career working as a safety professional in commercial nuclear generation.   As I continued my career in fossil and nuclear generation, in various safety and human performance roles supporting large scale utility contractors, and later working directly for utilities, I dove deeper and grew a greater understanding of what has now become my passion, obsession and purpose - helping to evolve as many organizations as I possibly can towards Human and Organizational Performance.

​

If you’re here, you are more than likely well acquainted with HOP (Human and Organizational Performance).  But for those that are new to the HOP revolution, Human and Organizational Performance (sometimes referred to as the “New View” or "Safety Differently) is a global movement towards using the social sciences to better understand how to design resilient systems.  It is often defined as a cross between system design and psychology.

​

I look forward to being part of the paradigm shift in your organization.  

​

Sincerely, 

​
