Dear Company Name Professional,

I am pleased to apply for the position of Executive Director, Environmental Health and Safety. Throughout my career, I have developed and leveraged my leadership, management and technical skills to reduce EHS risks, ensure compliance and maximize organizational performance. My contributions at USC will be no different.

As Executive Director, I will continue to develop and champion the EHS Department as a "center of excellence" for the university, providing the resources, systems and expertise to protect staff, faculty, employees, students, visitors and the environment. A summary of my qualifications include:

• Over 25 years of progressive responsibility as an EHS leader, manager, resource and technical expert.
• Over 20 years experience working with leaders of large organizations developing strategic plans and policies.
• Over 12 years experience managing EHS professionals, including a staff of over 35 persons.
• Experience as an EHS professional at Stanford University and Stanford University Medical Center and as a Graduate Research Assistant at UC Berkeley.
• Familiar with recognizing and controlling a broad range of health, safety, ergonomic and environmental hazards.
• Competent at designing facilities to eliminate potential hazards.
• Experience working in laboratory and R&D environments.
• Demonstrated ability to ensure compliance and interface with regulatory agencies.
• Certified Industrial Hygienist and Certified Safety Professional
• Master's Degree in Occupational Health (UC Berkeley)

I look forward to discussing my accomplishments and how I can help build a strong and dynamic safety culture at USC. It would be a pleasure to become a member of the "Trojan Family".

Sincerely,

Bonnie Porter
