Meet the team

Don Seguin

Solutions Engineer

Don works side by side sofvie users to ensure that setting up digital environments is successful and that Sofvie can be used to its fullest potential. With 8 years of experience as a Safety Training Supervisor in the mining industry and a pending OHS certificate, he’s the perfect guy to do it. Don carries a working knowledge of how mines function and the significant role that health and safety plays in day to day operations and is enthusiastic about helping clients meet their health and safety goals.

 

It’s not just experience that drives him. Unfortunately, Don witnessed 32 years of chronic pain after his father was injured in a workplace accident. He now invests his time into ensuring that his wife of 26 years and 2 precious daughters (and everybody else’s family for that matter) do not have to suffer the same experience.
You can count on Don.
