Working within vocational rehabilitation and economic damages analysis, this rehabilitation counseling expert witness evaluates employability, residual vocational capacity, and work-life impact associated with injury and disability claims. Since 2013, his practice has involved vocational assessments performed for civil litigation, insurance matters, and rehabilitation-related economic analyses. His experience includes evaluation of earning capacity, lost earnings, replacement labor costs, and diminished ability to perform household services following physical or occupational impairment. He also has substantial experience involving trucking-related injuries and accident-related vocational assessments.

His background combines rehabilitation counseling principles with labor market evaluation and vocational assessment methodology. Areas of concentration include transferable skills analysis, vocational testing, employability review, functional capacity considerations, and examination of occupational barriers affecting future work potential. He has worked with individuals experiencing physical disabilities, behavioral health conditions, and vocational disruption requiring analysis of employment options, wage loss exposure, and long-term vocational adjustment. Earlier clinical rehabilitation counseling work included vocational evaluation, disability adjustment counseling, job coaching, career assessment, educational advisement, and counseling services designed to support community inclusion and independent living.

A Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (C.R.C.), he earned a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Rehabilitation Counseling, a Master of Rehabilitation Counseling degree, and a Bachelor of Science degree in Family and Community Services. In addition to forensic rehabilitation practice, he has held extensive academic leadership and teaching appointments in rehabilitation counseling, counseling education, disability studies, and vocational guidance at the university level, including service as associate professor and department chair. His professional activities also include board and editorial leadership roles connected to rehabilitation counselor certification, rehabilitation education accreditation, and applied rehabilitation counseling scholarship.

His litigation-related analyses frequently incorporate review of educational history, prior employment experience, medical restrictions, labor market conditions, and occupational data relevant to economic damages determinations. Through vocational rehabilitation and expert witness assignments, he has assessed residual earning potential, vocational feasibility, work limitations, and economic consequences associated with injury-related reductions in employability and workforce participation. His scholarly and professional contributions further include publications and presentations addressing rehabilitation counseling, disability-related family dynamics, vocational development, rehabilitation education, and disability inclusion.
