I have been riding and been involved with motorcycle groups since 2009. My current bike is a 2008 FLHTP Electra Glide. I have served as a 1^st Lieutenant Chemical in the CT Army National Guard and Us Army Reserves. Currently I’m the Director of the Leominster MA HOG Chapter #1870. I’m also a Safety Officer and Road Captain for the Chapter. I have been working in the EHS (Environmental, Health, and Safety) field for the past forty years. I am certified Level 3 Instructor for HSI (Health and Safety Institute). I would like to combine my love for safe riding and the teaching skills that I have developed over the years of EHS/First Aid teaching and training.
