Court Testimony Experience
Grounded in the study of how people interact with mechanical systems during impact events, he is a biomedical and mechanical engineering specialist with more than 20 years of experience focused on occupant crash protection, injury biomechanics, and safety engineering. His work examines human tolerance to forces, restraint system performance, and the mechanisms of injury in motor vehicle collisions, including detailed analysis of seat belt systems and crashworthiness.
His investigative experience includes accident reconstruction, low-speed impact analysis, and simulation of occupant kinematics to evaluate how individuals move and respond during collisions. He has also conducted extensive evaluations of wheelchair tie-down and occupant restraint systems, along with testing and analysis of rehabilitation and assistive devices used in transportation and care environments for individuals with mobility limitations. His educational background includes a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering, earned cum laude, along with graduate study in Biomedical Engineering and Science focused on human musculoskeletal biomechanics. He also completed rehabilitation engineering training through an internship at a specialized rehabilitation hospital and brain injury center, reinforcing his expertise in biomechanics, assistive technologies, and injury analysis.
In his role leading a forensic engineering practice, he provides consulting on injury causation, safety design, and risk management for legal, insurance, and government clients. He has contributed to national standards efforts related to occupant restraints and vehicle safety and brings more than 20 years of expert witness experience, including deposition and trial testimony in matters involving crash safety, biomechanics, and human factors.
