A highly skilled and versatile engineering professional with over 7 years of experience working at an Upper-Tier COMAH site. My expertise spans the development and implementation of robust safety strategies, managing complex gas distribution systems, and leading critical risk analysis and hazard studies. I excel in operational excellence, regulatory compliance, and cross-functional collaboration, with a proven track record of delivering impactful results across high-risk industrial environments.
As a Process Safety Specialist, I have been instrumental in maintaining Upper-Tier COMAH safety standards, championing Management of Change (MoC) processes, and conducting in-depth analyses such as Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Process Hazard Analysis (PHA), and Layer of Protection Analysis (LOPA). My role also includes liaising with Competent Authorities (CA), incident investigation, and facilitating safety-focused training sessions to elevate team performance.
In my capacity as a Process Fuel Engineer, I have demonstrated expertise in managing gas distribution systems, overseeing commissioning and decommissioning projects, and ensuring safe pipeline purging operations. I am deeply committed to fostering team development through coaching and skills enhancement, creating high-performing teams equipped to handle safety-critical challenges.
Dedicated to community service, I volunteered as a Community First Responder and Group Coordinator for LIVES, where I contributed to health initiatives and gained valuable experience responding effectively to high-pressure, emergency situations.
I am passionate about fostering a culture of safety, efficiency, and innovation, driving continuous improvement, and developing strategies that mitigate risks while enhancing operational performance.
