This hydrogeologist serves as an expert witness with more than 25 years of experience in contaminant hydrogeology, with a focus on site characterization, forensic evaluation of contaminated environments, and groundwater system analysis. Their expert witness work includes consultation in matters involving contaminant source identification, transport mechanisms, and environmental liability, with technical analysis centered on data interpretation, cause-effect relationships, and evaluation of remediation strategies. The expert’s background supports assessment of complex hydrogeologic conditions in disputes involving groundwater contamination and site management practices.

Key areas of expertise include conceptual site model development, non-aqueous phase liquid behavior, groundwater–surface water interaction, sediment investigation and remediation, and fractured rock characterization. Their work also involves contaminant fate and transport analysis, hydrogeologic modeling, and evaluation of remediation performance, including integration of large datasets to assess plume dynamics and long-term environmental impact. Experience includes application of analytical and numerical modeling tools to evaluate subsurface conditions and support technical decision-making in complex environmental cases.

The expert has held sustained leadership and decision-making responsibilities in hydrogeologic consulting and independent advisory work, including development of technical approaches for site investigation and remediation. Their contributions include authorship of technical guidance for site characterization prepared in collaboration with the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the United States Department of Energy, reflecting involvement in regulatory and standards-based frameworks. Academic experience includes teaching contaminant hydrogeology and participation in research focused on groundwater flow and fractured rock systems. Professional involvement includes membership in the International Association of Hydrogeologists and the National Ground Water Association.

Credentials include Certified Professional Hydrologist from the American Institute of Hydrology and Certified Ground Water Professional from the National Ground Water Association. The expert holds a Doctor of Philosophy in Civil and Environmental Engineering, a Master of Science in Civil Engineering, and a Bachelor of Science in Water Resources.
