EHS Technician focused on compliance, process improvement, and customer-ready safety.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can strengthen safety and compliance, improve processes, and collaborate cross-functionally. I want an environment that values clear communication, meticulous documentation, and measurable customer satisfaction outcomes.

I’m an EHS Technician I with 2+ years in fast-paced service, safety, and operational environments. I resolve complex inquiries through root-cause analysis, maintain meticulous documentation, and deliver measurable results under pressure—including “zero audit findings” across internal compliance reviews.

I take compliance seriously, maintaining SDS records and hazardous waste manifests while ensuring “100% OSHA and EPA compliance” for aerospace chemical processing. I also manage PPE and respiratory clearances for 100+ employees, streamline asset tracking to “cut equipment delays by 30%,” and coordinate annual safety training across shifts to reduce repeat incidents.

Beyond EHS, I bring hands-on operational experience from roles like Dock & Housekeeping Associate and Tank Wash Technician, where I prioritized safety procedures, accurate ticketing, and audit readiness. I document cleaning activities and equipment status, follow SDS and DOT requirements in regulated environments, and communicate issues to reduce downtime; I’m also building my foundation in IT through coursework in Operating Systems, Network Fundamentals, and Security+ preparation.
