I have a background in Mechanical Engineering and I've been working for Lloyd's Register in the United States and Canada for over five years. Throughout my time with Lloyd's (currently at Lloyd's Register Energy Canada Limited) I have filled all the roles of a Risk Based Inspection (RBI) program. My early roles with Lloyd's Register Capstone were Visual Inspection and Equipment Specialist where my day-to-day duties were to gather, organise and analyse the information required to implement and maintain a Risk Based Inspection program. Through these roles I gained the knowledge necessary to start leading RBI teams through implementation and evergreen projects. Following several successful implementation and evergreen projects, I became a Project Manager for Lloyd's Register Capstone (now known as Lloyd's Register Energy America's). As Project Manager, I managed several Implementation and Evergreen projects for Risk Based Inspection programs in the Texas - Gulf of Mexico area.

Two years ago I was given the opportunity to create and develop a Mechanical Integrity Department that specialised in Risk Based Inspection at the new Lloyd's Register Energy Canada office (formerly known as Lloyd's Register in North America), Calgary, Alberta. For the last two years my department and I have been working in Calgary with Canadian clients on Risk Based Inspection Program Development, Implementation and Evergreening. My department specialises in the Management, Consulting, Execution and Value of Risk Based Inspection and Mechanical Integrity Project Consulting ranging from executing an entire RBI program for a client to managing a single Fitness for Service on one asset with a Risk Based Inspection application. The goal of the department is to increase safety, increase value and decrease risk for every client through our Mechanical Integrity Services.
