With 15 years of experience in the Environmental/Waste industry, I currently serve as the Operational Lead for Environmental Compliance at Plant Spartanburg, where I have been for the past 6 years. In this role, I oversee compliance across air, waste, and water domains, ensuring adherence to regulations such as RCRA, DOT, IATA, and HAZWOPER. I support the continuous improvement of the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System and coordinate the development of environmental targets with management input. My responsibilities include obtaining necessary permits, maintaining accurate compliance records, investigating complaints, and monitoring new regulations to enhance performance and cost efficiency.

CMC is an epic journey that spans more than a century. It’s an extraordinary tale of scrap yards and steel mills, hardworking employees and visionary leaders, steady progress and dramatic breakthroughs. Most of all, it’s a shining example of how remaining true to a core set of abiding principles — providing superior customer service, acting with integrity, dedicating ourselves to safety, delivering outstanding shareholder value, and serving the communities in which we operate, among others — can provide the foundation for remarkable success. From a single scrap yard in Dallas, Texas, CMC has grown into a Fortune 500 company with hundreds of facilities and more than 10,000 employees serving our valued customers around the world. Recycling is the future. It’s also our history. We have the capacity to process and ship nearly 5 million tons of ferrous and non-ferrous scrap annually. We buy, process, sell and manage scrap in collaboration with our partners around the world. 19 billion pounds of scrap is kept from our landfills annually.
