Skilled acoustical and vibration engineer working as an expert witness with more than 30 years of experience in building acoustics, MEP noise and vibration, architectural acoustics, and environmental noise and vibration control engineering, including more than 15 years providing consultation, deposition testimony, and courtroom testimony. Their work involves analysis of noise and vibration conditions in residential, commercial, and industrial environments, including noise source identification, evaluation of environmental impacts, and application of acoustical analysis in dispute-related matters.

Their expertise includes MEP noise and vibration, baseline analysis, reverberation assessment, speech interference, sleep disturbance, environmental impact evaluation, propagation analysis, computer modeling applications, remote outdoor noise and vibration monitoring, and development of noise reduction requirements. Additional areas include industrial noise control and infrastructure-related systems such as power generation facilities, substations, pipelines, transportation systems, aerospace facilities, and manufacturing environments. Their work also includes acoustical performance testing and evaluation using ASTM sound transmission and impact isolation standards.

Their background includes experience on numerous projects involving design-phase and retrofit noise and vibration assessment and control, environmental impact studies under NEPA and CEQA, development of community noise ordinances and general plan noise elements, and participation in public hearings addressing noise and vibration impacts. Their work also includes selection as an acoustical consultant in noise-related court cases and tax board appeals. Professional involvement includes participation with the Acoustical Society of America, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, and the Institute of Noise Control Engineering. The expert holds a Doctor of Philosophy, a Master of Science, and a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, along with a certificate in advanced acoustical scale modeling. Credentials include full membership in the Institute of Noise Control Engineering.
