Hi Reader :)
Brandy Zadoorian here (CEO and Principal Consultant of Triangle Safety Consulting LLC)!
We are celebrating 5 years of Triangle Safety Consulting LLC! ✨Keep scrolling for a special discount for our email subscribers! I am deeply grateful for everyone who has supported me and my business along the way; clients who have trusted and referred me, fellow safety professionals who have shared their advice and insight, and friends and family who have always been in my corner. Owning and leading this business has been an incredibly rewarding experience, and I truly couldn’t have done it without all of you. Here’s to the next 5 years of reducing risk, minimizing injuries and illnesses, and building a safer workplace!
If you’re ready to build a safer and healthier workplace, let's chat! Contact me below :)
I am the face behind Triangle Safety Consulting LLC (TSC)! As our CEO and Principal Consultant, I ensure businesses have the tools they need to stay in compliance with OSHA regulations, reduce risk, and minimize injuries. Our goal at TSC is to decrease injuries and illnesses by conducting effective safety training, and performing detailed safety audits and inspections. We also provide on-site support to help your safety team with their To-Do List!
How it all began:
I have over ten years of experience in Safety and Industrial Hygiene in manufacturing facilities. I started my career as an industrial hygienist, then transitioned to an Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) Specialist for a large manufacturing facility. I was then promoted to Corporate Environmental, Health, and Safety Manager for a corporation of 15,000 employees. In addition to being a CSP, I am a Certified Safety Director (CSD).
I won 1st Place in the J.J. Keller Safety Professional of The Year (SPOTY) Award in 2020 and was the 2022 Young Professional Safety Excellence Award Runner-Up from EHS Daily Advisor. I volunteer as the Communications Chair of the American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP) Piedmont Chapter, and have been volunteering since 2018.
My story:
My dad spent 40 years as a blue-collar worker - decades of early mornings, long shifts, and hard, honest labor. He was fortunate to work for a company that took safety and health seriously. Because of that commitment, he retired in October 2023 injury and illness-free. Now he’s soaking up retirement with the kind of quality of life every worker hopes for.
That matters to me - not just as his child, but as a safety professional. At TSC, we carry that same mission forward. Our work is driven by the belief that every worker deserves to go home safe and healthy - every day - until the day they retire.
We help make that possible through engaging, meaningful safety training and by conducting detailed audits, inspections, and assessments. Because for us, it's personal. Behind every written safety program, every safety inspection, every toolbox talk - there’s someone’s parent, someone’s future, someone’s life on the line.
Catch Us at the Region 6 ASSP Conference in Myrtle Beach!

Abrasive Grinder Ring Test - Have you ever witnessed it without asking for it to be done?
Some of our clients are “out in the sticks,” AKA in the middle of nowhere! 🌽 🐮 🌾 As I was walking through a maintenance area recently, I saw a maintenance person conducting a Ring Test on his abrasive grinding wheel.
I had never seen this happen “in the wild”! I praised the employee for his safe work practice! Not sure what the Ring Test is? Anyone using abrasive wheels NEEDS to do this test before using the wheel on machines like a pedestal grinder.

The Importance of Machine Guarding
Proper machine guarding is one of the most effective ways to prevent serious workplace injuries. Guards protect employees from hazards such as flying chips, sparks, and accidental contact with moving parts. OSHA requires employers to ensure machinery is properly guarded, but beyond compliance, it’s simply the right thing to do for worker safety.
We recently had the honor of working with Josh during a machine guarding assessment for two stamping presses. Here’s what he had to say:
At Triangle Safety Consulting LLC, we’re here to help you identify risks, stay OSHA-compliant, and protect your team.
