Selina Santiago, MS, CSP
Selina Santiago has been an Environment, Safety, and Health professional with Sandia National Laboratories for 15 years. She began her career as a student intern supporting ES&H operations within mission organizations, and upon graduating with her B.S. in biology, she found a home in safety. Selina is a Certified Safety Professional and a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt. She is passionate about environmental sustainability and was awarded a DOE Sustainability Champion award in 2020 for her work in piloting the New Mexico’s Zero Waste Program through organizing and leading the installation of recycling stations; she later helped expand them to receive almost every type of recyclable material. She also single-handedly implemented composting throughout her building, which was the first actualized effort to do so within a Secure Area. Now, composting is readily available throughout Sandia! Selina is excited at the potential opportunity to serve on the New Mexico ASSP board, which will allow her to exchange ideas and practices with the larger NM safety community.
