Court Testimony Experience
A geotechnical engineer with more than 15 years of experience, he focuses on soil-structure interaction, infrastructure performance, and the evaluation of geotechnical failures across complex construction environments. His work includes expert witness engagements over the past decade, with involvement in mediation, arbitration, and litigation-related analyses addressing causation, design performance, and compliance issues. His background spans projects across domestic and international settings, supporting evaluations for developers, insurers, utilities, and legal teams.
His technical work centers on how soil behavior influences structural performance. This includes analysis of slope stability, liquefaction mitigation, settlement and heave, excavation support, and the effects of vibration and adjacent construction on existing structures. He has evaluated systems such as deep and shallow foundations, retaining walls, levees, pipelines, LNG storage tanks, and wind turbine foundations, as well as failures involving landslides, mechanically stabilized earth walls, and dam infrastructure. His approach incorporates numerical modeling, including finite element analysis for porous media and soil-structure interaction, to assess geotechnical conditions and failure mechanisms.
Beyond project work, he is involved in engineering practice through participation in professional activities and development of industry guidance, including work related to wind turbine foundation design. His background also includes academic contributions as a lecturer and researcher, supported by doctoral and graduate training in civil and environmental engineering. He is a licensed Professional Engineer in multiple jurisdictions, combining technical expertise with practical experience in evaluating infrastructure performance and risk.
