RT, UT Level II / Radiation Safety Officer / UT, RT & Radiation Safety Instructor:
I have taken the initiative to read and interpret work instructions and procedures related to all NDT methods that are utilized at USP to insure adherence to Customer and API Specifications. I played a key role into locating vendors for obtaining necessary equipment for the NDT Department. Not only did I locate local venders for NDT equipment, but I also introduced equipment that would help to streamline NDT processes. I was responsible for securing the ability to implement In-house training of NDT personnel with the approval of USP’s contracted Level III. I am a delegated Instructor for UT Level I & UT Level II as well as RT Level I & Level II classes. As the Radiation Safety Officer I am responsible for adherence, implementation, and continual improvement of the Radiation Protection Program that assures USP’s Radiation Department meets and exceeds California State requirements. I am the Instructor in charge of the Radiographer Assistant 8 hour Safety course and pride myself with an 87% pass rate. I took a lead role in re-development of Training Requirement Forms to meet ASNT’s SNT-TC-1A guidelines for Qualification and Certification of NDT personnel.

Before any pipe was shipped I assisted in collecting and proof reading all data to assure that the product was in compliance with customer specifications. Prepared and Instructed PT (Level I & II), RT (Level I & II), UT (Level I & II), Radiation Safety, and Visual Level II classes per course outline of SNT-TC-1A, while maintaining as pass/fail percentage above 90%.

Helped to redesign NDT equipment. While redesigning NDT equipment I also made contacts that not only helped to reverse engineer specialty NDT products but cut cost of these items by a significant amount. Helped in the implementation of a Min/Max system all NDT expendable parts.
