I am partner in an Ontario Health and Safety company called Barantas Inc. Barantas' mission is to proactively promote and create safe and healthy work environments across Canada through education, training, communication, and design. I started my career after high school in health sciences at the University of Guelph, to help people live better lives, that slowly evolved over the years until I found Barantas, which redirected that desire to working in health and safety - continuing and enhancing my purpose of ensuring people live safe and healthy lives. Through all my years I’ve continued to volunteer my time to organizations which make peoples lives safer (Halton Regional Police, Forestry Safety, Cottage Dreams (Cancer Recovery) and more) and now have added a new volunteer effort to my list which is in line with what I believe to be my life's purpose. It is with great pleasure that I can assist Nadiya and her brother with their dream of helping as many Ukrainians in this time of need as we can, preserving and promoting the Ukrainian culture, history and people.
