Program Director
YouthBuild Louisville

With a lifelong fascination for weather phenomena and environmental issues, I embarked on a career in environmental science to address challenges such as climate change, pollution, and biodiversity loss. Armed with a Master’s degree in Environmental Policies and Management, my focus has been on advocating for sustainable practices in agriculture and industry to mitigate the adverse impacts on our environment and communities.

During my tenure in the healthcare sector spanning a decade, I spearheaded the implementation of a comprehensive recycling and reprocessing program aimed at reducing hospital waste and promoting cost-effective equipment procurement. The initiative not only contributed to waste reduction but also fostered a more sustainable approach to healthcare delivery, ultimately benefiting both the institution and its patients.

The life-changing experience of overcoming the pandemic’s obstacles highlighted how important it is to give safety and health precautions first priority in all aspect of our lives. Through my advocacy of strict safety regulations and healthcare policies, I was able to protect the health and safety of medical personnel as well as the general public, which in turn helped to lower the population’s exposure to the virus.

Drawing upon my rich background in health and safety protocols, I have honed my expertise through extensive worksite safety assessments and the diligent enforcement of safety regulations. With a steadfast commitment to fostering safer and healthier communities, particularly in Kentucky, I offer invaluable training programs at no cost to empower individuals with the knowledge and skills needed to thrive in a secure environment.
