Another of Cameron's passions is continuously generating value, which he believes will ensure Field Safe's success and increased safety for client workforces. To create value, he follows two guiding principles.

Since becoming CEO in 2018, he has assembled a talented team that has established Field Safe as an industry leader despite pandemic economic challenges and start-up hurdles. He credits employees, clients, partners, and an outstanding board and advisory board.

He emphasizes that innovation is at the core of Field Safe's approach, driving the company to continually push boundaries and deliver cutting-edge technology solutions.
