SUMMARY
Over seven years experience as an engineering geologist in the southern California area (including two
years experience as a staff engineer). Experience includes geotechnical and engineering geologic
investigations, seismic and geologic hazards studies, fault investigations, landslide and stability
evaluations, and site feasibility investigations. Project experience includes public, commercial, industrial
and residential developments, large mass grading/earthwork projects, dams, and other civil works.

Development and preparation of proposals, scope of work, and budgets for geotechnical projects
addressing single lots to tracts of the order of thousands of acres. Development of approximately
$200,000 worth of geotechnical work in the calendar year 2007.
Planning, execution, and preparation of reports of preliminary through engineering level

hazards, active fault rupture hazards, and general geotechnical issues impacting public,
residential, commercial and industrial developments in the above referenced municipalities.
Engineering analyses including evaluation of soil index properties, hydroconsolidation, static
settlement, seismicity, and slope stability.
