I worked as a hazardous materials specialist for the California Highway Patrol (CHP), from 1988 through 2004 and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), from 2004 through 2020. I was a certified hazardous material trainer for the FMCSA National Training center training state and federal commercial officers from 1995 through 2020. I was subject matter presenter at the National Truck Tank Carriers (NTTC). I instructed industry classes training registered inspectors how to test, inspect, repair, and assemble cargo from 2006 through 2020.
