Grounded in geomorphology and hydrology, this expert brings more than 25 years of experience studying watershed processes, sediment transport, and high-energy environmental systems, along with over 15 years serving as an expert witness. His litigation work includes consultations, depositions, and trial testimony in cases involving flooding, erosion, debris flows, landslides, and fire-affected watersheds, with involvement in large-scale matters concerning hydrologic and geomorphic conditions.

His technical expertise includes analysis of fluvial systems, surface runoff, sediment transport and deposition, and slope stability, with a focus on how environmental systems respond to natural and disturbance-driven events. He applies advanced methods such as remote sensing, GIS, real-time monitoring systems, ground-penetrating radar, drone-based surveying, and computational modeling to evaluate complex hydrologic and geomorphic processes in both field and analytical settings.

In addition to consulting work, he has held academic and research appointments in geoscience and civil and environmental engineering, contributing to teaching, applied research, and large-scale environmental investigations. He also leads a hydrologic and geomorphic consulting practice, supporting multidisciplinary projects involving complex environmental systems and engineering-related assessments. He holds a Ph.D. in Geomorphology, Hydrology, and Climatology, a Master of Science in Geomorphology and Hydrology, and a Bachelor of Science with majors in Physical Geography, Philosophy, and History. His research has been published extensively in leading scientific journals and supported by major governmental research agencies.
