With over 38 years of extensive experience in occupational safety, ground, weapons, and explosives safety, risk management, and leadership — including 26 years of active duty in the United States Air Force — I bring a comprehensive and proven ability to protect personnel, equipment, and operations across high-risk environments. I founded Smith Safety Solutions LLC with a mission to help organizations create safer, more compliant workplaces., I bring a deep, hands-on understanding of occupational safety across multiple high-risk industries. For 8 years, I served as a Compliance Officer with the U.S. Department of Labor (OSHA), conducting investigations and inspections across construction, general industry, agriculture, and logging. During that time, I investigated over 100 serious accidents and fatalities, developing extensive expertise in accident causation, prevention strategies, and regulatory compliance. Over the past 4 1/2 years, I have continued my career as an Occupational Safety Specialist with the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation (US DOI/BOR), and most recently as an Occupational Safety Manager with the United States Air Force. My experience spans federal, military, and civilian sectors, allowing me to provide comprehensive safety solutions, risk assessments, program development, and leadership that help organizations protect their workforce and achieve full regulatory compliance. At Smith Safety Solutions LLC, safety isn’t just our service—it’s our mission.

After decades of dedicated work in safety and risk management, I’ve seen the very best — and the very worst — of what can happen in the workplace. I have personally witnessed the heartbreak and devastation that follows a fatal workplace accident. I’ve sat with grieving families and coworkers whose lives were forever changed in an instant.
After decades of dedicated work in safety and risk management, I’ve seen the very best — and the very worst — of what can happen in the workplace. I have personally witnessed the heartbreak and devastation that follows a fatal workplace accident. I’ve sat with grieving families and coworkers whose lives were forever changed in an instant. Those moments stay with me, and they drive my passion to prevent such tragedies from ever happening again.
I also know the frustration many businesses feel when navigating safety requirements. Sadly, many businesses are taken advantage of by companies that sell overpriced materials that can be obtained at no cost from trusted regulatory agencies. I believe safety shouldn’t be about profit margins; it should be about people — protecting lives, livelihoods, and the well-being of every worker who shows up to do their job each day.
At Smith Safety Solutions LLC, my mission is simple: to help ease the anxieties, confusion, and fears surrounding safety compliance, while providing honest, practical, and effective solutions that truly make a difference. Whether you're a small business or a large organization, I am here to serve as a trusted partner in creating safer workplaces, preventing injuries, and giving peace of mind to you, your employees, and their families.
Because at the end of the day, every worker deserves to go home safe.
