With over 40 years of experience in atmospheric science and meteorology, this forensic meteorologist specializes in the mathematical modeling of geophysical and atmospheric data for litigation and dispute resolution. Their work focuses on applying numerical modeling and scientific analysis to reconstruct weather events, evaluate atmospheric conditions, and assess environmental factors in civil and criminal matters. Their background includes a Doctor of Philosophy in atmospheric science and meteorology, along with graduate and undergraduate education in physics and mathematics, supporting advanced analytical modeling and interpretation of complex meteorological data.

Their expertise includes air pollution meteorology and air quality modeling, with extensive experience in air dispersion analysis, hazardous plume releases, and evaluation of pollutant transport and concentration. This work is applied in matters involving industrial air pollution, toxic tort claims, and environmental exposure, including disputes related to chemical releases and petrochemical operations. Their modeling work incorporates air quality techniques consistent with methodologies approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, along with meteorological data acquisition, processing, and analysis in both domestic and international contexts.

Additional areas of analysis include weather event reconstruction and historical climate evaluation, including severe storm analysis, flooding and rainfall events, hurricane and tropical storm impacts, and wind and visibility conditions. Their work includes evaluating smoke and fog conditions in multi-vehicle accidents, aviation meteorology, and atmospheric conditions relevant to personal injury, wrongful death, property damage, and infrastructure-related disputes. They also analyze force majeure conditions, acts of god, and unusual weather phenomena in contractual and liability matters.

They have more than 25 years of experience providing litigation consulting, deposition testimony, and trial testimony in both plaintiff and defense matters. Their case experience includes class action environmental claims, industrial air pollution disputes, hazardous chemical plume releases, and large-scale flooding and severe weather events requiring detailed meteorological reconstruction and modeling.

Credentials include Certified Professional Geoscientist. They are a court-qualified expert in air modeling and forensic meteorology and maintain professional affiliations with the American Meteorological Society, American Bar Association, National Association of Environmental Professionals, and Air and Waste Management Association.
