Paul trains professionals across industries with a unique ability to translate complex safety protocols into practical, site-ready knowledge that resonates with real-world workers.
Paul’s background spans heavy industry sectors involving molten metals and large-scale hazardous chemical operations. His work has placed him on the front lines of industrial safety, including active roles on spill response teams—most notably those handling high-risk substances such as hydrofluoric acid. His depth of experience allows him to train with both authority and empathy, understanding firsthand the challenges faced by frontline workers.
A key moment in Paul’s career was helping plant-level teams implement targeted safety programs that significantly reduced both safety and environmental incidents. Whether serving as a corporate EHS manager or leading on-site as a facility-level safety coordinator, Paul has consistently focused on empowering workers through actionable, behavior-driven safety strategies.
Paul’s teaching is grounded in decades of operational insight. He believes that strong safety programs aren’t built from the top down—they’re built alongside the people doing the work. His courses reflect that philosophy, helping students not only understand the “how” of compliance, but the “why” behind it.
