Meet Leo

The guy behind FigMon Safety

What's up — I'm Leonardo Figueroa, but everybody just calls me Leo. I started in construction back in 2005 as an installer, Drywall & Metal Framing Construction Company at OKC. Hanging drywall, framing walls, getting it done on the jobsite every day. I wasn't thinking about safety back then — I was just trying to do good work and take care of my family.

By 2009, I moved up to foreman and ran crews for five years. That's where I really started seeing it — guys getting hurt because nobody took the time to train them right. Close calls that didn't have to happen. I knew I could do something about it.

Installer (2005)→Foreman (2009)→Safety Manager→FigMon Safety — Owner

So I went all in on safety. Got my OSHA 502, my SSH in Construction, became a Genie Train the Trainer for boom lifts and telehandlers, earned the full UTA ATP 191 badge series, and kept stacking certifications because I believe if you're going to teach it, you better know it inside and out.

Today I work as a Regional Safety Manager for a major acoustics & drywall contractor, covering projects across Oklahoma and Texas. But I also run FigMon Safety LLC — my own company — because I saw too many smaller contractors who needed good training but couldn't afford a full-time safety guy. That's where I come in.

🌎 One more thing — I teach in English and Spanish. Not the translated-from-a-textbook kind. The real deal. When I'm in front of your crew, everybody understands what's going on. No confusion, no guessing. That's the whole point.

🌎 Una cosa más — Enseño en inglés y español. No del tipo traducido de un libro. Lo real. Cuando estoy frente a tu cuadrilla, todos entienden lo que está pasando. Sin confusión, sin adivinar. De eso se trata.

I'm based in Oklahoma City and serve clients across Oklahoma and nearby states. Whether you need an OSHA 10, a full safety program, or someone to get your crew squared away before the GC shows up — hit me up. I'm here to help, not to make things complicated.
