With over 50 years of experience, this geotechnical engineering expert witness provides analysis in matters involving subsurface conditions, soil behavior, and foundation performance. Their work includes more than 30 years of expert witness involvement, with consultation, deposition, arbitration, and trial testimony addressing geotechnical failures and foundation-related issues across residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects.

Professional credentials include licensure as a Professional Engineer in multiple states. Academic training includes a Master of Applied Science in Soil Mechanics and a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering, supporting a technical foundation in soil behavior, foundation systems, and geotechnical analysis.

Their engineering practice encompasses geotechnical investigations for land development, foundation design for low- to high-rise structures, and evaluation of infrastructure systems such as roadways, bridges, airfields, and utility facilities. They have directed subsurface exploration, soil testing, and construction monitoring, as well as design and analysis for earth dams, levees, bulkheads, and soft ground tunnels. Additional expertise includes pavement evaluation, slope stability analysis, and flood control structures, along with assessment of foundation distress in buildings and other structures.

Leadership experience includes roles as president and chief executive officer of an engineering firm, as well as prior ownership and senior engineering positions, where responsibilities involved project oversight, engineering design, and client advisory services. Their work also includes managing geotechnical projects involving flood control systems, water storage facilities, and transportation infrastructure, as well as conducting hundreds of forensic investigations related to foundation movement and soil-related failures. Professional affiliations include membership in organizations such as the American Society of Civil Engineers and the Foundation Performance Association, reflecting engagement with industry standards and engineering practices.
