Water rights and hydrogeology expert witness with more than 15 years of technical experience in the management, development, and remediation of water resources, along with over 5 years of expert witness engagement that includes litigation consultation, deposition testimony, and courtroom testimony. His professional work addresses water rights disputes, hydrogeologic investigations, and environmental compliance matters affecting mining, geothermal, oil and gas, municipal, agricultural, solar, and waste disposal operations.

His water rights practice includes permitting, transfers, adjudications, and title research, as well as basin studies and perennial yield assessments throughout Nevada. He has managed and developed significant volumes of water rights and supported applications for water rights permits, water pollution control permits, discharge permits, underground injection control permits, aquifer storage and recovery permits, and related regulatory approvals. Technical evaluations frequently involve development of conceptual hydrogeologic models, numerical groundwater flow modeling, and solute fate and transport modeling to assess sustainable yield, project demand, and compliance with regulatory conditions.

In addition to permitting and adjudication support, his experience encompasses hydrogeologic characterization, groundwater and surface water monitoring programs, production and monitoring well design and testing, well drilling and construction oversight, and emergency action planning for dams and reservoirs using tools such as HEC-RAS, HEC-HMS, and MODFLOW. He has performed Phase I, II, and III environmental site assessments and investigations involving contaminated soil and groundwater, including design and testing of groundwater treatment systems and soil vapor extraction systems for remediation projects.

He serves as a Senior Consultant in water rights and hydrogeology and previously held hydrogeologist roles within public agency and private consulting settings. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Hydrogeology and is a Professional Land Surveyor, a Water Rights Surveyor, a Certified Environmental Manager, and an International Certified Groundwater Monitoring Specialist. His professional involvement includes service on the Board of Directors of the Nevada Water Resources Association, reflecting engagement with regulatory and technical standards governing water resource management and environmental compliance.
