With more than 35 years in plastics engineering and polymer manufacturing, he has built a career focused on extrusion processing, flexible packaging, converting operations, and industrial manufacturing systems. His technical background includes polymer chemistry, blown and cast film production, extrusion coating and laminating, thermoforming, compounding, web handling, and multilayer packaging technologies used in consumer, industrial, and specialty applications. In litigation matters, he has evaluated manufacturing failures, packaging defects, equipment performance issues, trade secret disputes, and product-related claims involving plastics processing and industrial operations.

He has held senior technical and executive leadership responsibilities within both manufacturing and consulting environments. Through polymer science and engineering consulting work, he has provided troubleshooting, process development, product design, training, and expert analysis across a broad range of extrusion and converting technologies. His background also includes leadership of specialty manufacturing operations producing extrusion-coated films, papers, and nonwoven materials for packaging, medical-related, and industrial applications, with responsibilities involving equipment acquisition, plant startup, engineering operations, quality programs, and large-scale manufacturing development.

In addition to his industry work, he has served as an adjunct professor in plastics engineering, teaching courses involving extrusion, polymer chemistry, laminating, compounding, film and sheet processing, and thermoforming. His professional contributions include authorship of technical manuals, publication of more than 100 technical articles, papers, and books, participation in international extrusion seminars, and involvement with leading plastics and converting industry organizations, including service on the TAPPI Extrusion Coating Committee (including as Past Chair), the AIMCAL Technical Committee, and collaborations with the Malaysia Plastics Association and Flexible Packaging Europe. He has more than 20 years of expert witness experience involving consultations, depositions, and courtroom testimony in disputes related to polymer processing, manufacturing systems, packaging technologies, and industrial equipment. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Plastics Engineering and a Master of Business Administration in Management.
