I am a strong believer in continuous improvement, both within the working
environment and professionally. My professional development converts directly into
improvement of the working environment which translates directly into safer and healthier
miners. Attaining a Master of Science degree in Industrial Hygiene from Montana Tech is the
next step in my professional development process. My two primary reasons for continuing to
advance my professional development are (a) to prepare myself to become a Certified
Industrial Hygienist, and (b) to improve my ability to quickly and effectively identify and
control hazards.
Achieving an MS in Industrial Hygiene from Montana Tech would most certainly
derive benefit for me and the workers I endeavor to protect. If admitted, as I have effectively
demonstrated in attaining my Certified Safety Professional designation, I would successfully
balance work and studies and eventually become a graduate Montana Tech would be proud to
call one of its own.
