Bryce Lawlor, CSP
Bryce, a Connecticut native, got his EHS start at school while completing his undergraduate from Keene State College in Keene, NH. There he earned his Bachelors in, Occupational Safety and Health & Applied Sciences. During his time in school, he had two internships, one with Medtronic in their EHS Divisional group and another with Markem-Imaje in their facility/plant EHS department. After school, Bryce started his career moving down to North Carolina and working for Cree, Inc. in Durham. Bryce has remained with Cree since and enjoys working in the high technology semiconductor industry.
At Cree, Bryce has had the opportunity to work in all aspects of EHS, with a particular emphasis on industrial hygiene, working under the company’s CIH and his mentor. In 2017 he earned his Associate Safety Professional (ASP) certification, followed shortly after with his Certified Safety Professional (CSP) in 2018. In 2019 Bryce also began his Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) degree program at NC State’s Jenkins MBA Program where he is slated to complete that degree in early 2022.
Bryce has been a member of the North Carolina American Society of Safety Professionals since 2015 and been serving as the Media Chair since 2016 which is the position he currently holds today. He was also highly involved in the ASS”E” chapter while in school where he was the student chapter’s Vice President.
Outside of professional life, Bryce enjoys all things fitness. Taking that passion, he and two friends started a veteran’s fundraising effort dubbed, The Heroes Campaign: a fundraising effort for the Task Force Dagger Foundation combining people’s love for fitness, community and giving back to our Veterans. That effort successfully raised over $12K during their time and they are looking to re-invigorate their events here in the near future. He also enjoys spending time with his wife, his 1-year-old daughter, dog and soon to be daughter number two!
Bryce is passionate about this job and this chapter and his colleagues, friends and peers can attest. He hopes everyone reading this can take advantage of what the Chapter has to offer, particularly on networking opportunities. This Chapter is filled with over 400-chapter members. That’s over 400 stories, 400 people with different experiences. Combined, our Chapter alone has more lifetimes of experience and know-how than we can count! Use it to your advantage. This job is not easy but it’s rewarding and important, and remember that every day, is a great day to save lives!
