Special Operations Manager, Safeway Mining and Oil investment – Sierra Leone, Africa 03/2012 to 04/2015

My position in this organization held multiple facets; however, my primary role was to provide oversight of Safeway Mining and report directly to the owner. This process began by fostering relations with the Sierra Leone government through the Serria Leone attaché to Kuwait, which in turn lead to a partnership. I met several leading-edge manufacturers of mining equipment in China and oversaw the procurement and export of the mining machinery to Africa and completed the process by importing the machinery into the country for use. With boots on the ground, my responsibilities shifted to negotiations with Parliament Chiefs and local Chieftains, acquiring land rights for mining, clearing land, setting up mining sites and camps, excavating, processing, and exporting of the minerals that were procured.
