Chad is a dedicated Biosafety professional with over 12 years of experience in research and academia. His passion for the field started as a child, where he enjoyed collecting and studying bugs he found in the backyard. As an adult this translated to keeping people safe from potentially harmful laboratory “bugs”. He has a diverse background and holds a BS and MS in Biology, from East Carolina University. His career has taken him from the College of Engineering and Technology, where he oversaw day-to-day operations, to becoming the Biological Safety Officer for the Brody School of Medicine and ECU. Most recently, he was the Interim Director for the Department of Prospective Health, where he was primarily responsible for the Biosafety and Infection Control programs. When not working, he enjoys spending time with his family and continues looking for bugs in the backyard, with his children.
