CAREER SUMMARY

IT Engineer / Engineer / Radiological Engineer / Health Physicist with

superior technical problem-solving capabilities.

KEY SKILLS

Data analysis and evaluation, including advanced scientific computer

programming (including intensive C-language programming, and also Microsoft

Excel and Access), development of many data analysis and tracking codes,

codes for internal and external dosimetry, dose calculation, bioassay

tracking, and accelerator radiation shielding analysis

Familiar with open source technology including preparation of custom Linux

distributions

Familiar with Java and SQL

Authored computer codes, including a user-friendly scientific database

(written in C) for calibration, statistical analysis of data, error

detection, and quality control of U.S. Army photoluminescent / diode

dosimetry systems.

Developed a computer code to support ventilation of rooms in conjunction

with the possibility of radiological or hazardous gaseous source terms

being present (considering the radiological half-lives or degradation half-

lives of each, as applicable)-including the operation of HEPA vacuum

systems, as applicable.

Development, modification, testing, and/or evaluation of new or improved

instrumentation, equipment, analytical procedures, operating procedures,

evaluation techniques, and computer programs

Managed the production of the implementation plan for 10 CFR 835 compliance

(similar in concept to an broad scope NRC license but for the Department of

Energy).

Gamma spectroscopy

Radiological ventilation system design

Radiological safety, including analysis and design of radiological work

Preparation of written guidelines on radiation control standards and

practices, and methods to resolve related problems

Regulatory inspections, enforcement, compliance, ALARA

Co-developed a computer program and a new method of internal dose

assessment using the latest standards-uniquely combining bioassay results

with personnel air sample results to more accurately compute dose when the

solubility classes of the radioactive material was highly varied and

largely unknown-saving hundreds of thousands of dollars

Developed practical radon and thoron monitoring techniques in which

variable sampling and post-sampling waiting times (for activity monitoring)

could be used.

Performed statistical analysis of data for various highly technical

projects, including MARSSIM statistical analysis

Authored a two part peer reviewed scientific article entitled Detection and

Quantification Limits of Radiological Field Survey Instrumentation,

mathematically defining very accurately the detection limits and survey

method options of radiological field survey instrumentation

Nuclear instrumentation, including instrument calibration and calibration

facility design for radiac instrumentation

Analysis of requirements and performance of accelerator shielding analysis

and evaluation of accelerator facility design

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Babcock & Wilcox Company West

Mifflin, PA

Engineer 2004 - 2013

Developed a computer code to support ventilation of rooms in conjunction

with the possibility of radiological or hazardous gaseous source terms

being present (considering the radiological half-lives or degradation half-

lives of each, as applicable)-including the operation of HEPA vacuum

systems, as applicable.

Developed computer codes supporting personnel noise exposure calculation

and noise exposure prevention.

Developed methodologies supporting both industrial hygiene and radiological

protection, and developed a computer code to track the training of

personnel.

Developed the database for tracking the required aspects of the HEPA vacuum

systems.

Developed a method for tracking and continuously adjusting many variables

to accurately predict personnel external exposure, for use in optimizing

ALARA.

Developed a shielding analysis code.

Developed the HEPA Vacuum System methodology requirements document for the

company-resulting in our organization having the only approved HEPA

implementation in the land-based U.S. Navy system.

Performed analysis and design of radiological work as a Naval Nuclear

Reactors qualified "Engineer of Radiological Work," and other technical

activities.

Developed a process similar to MARSSIM for deconstruction activities.

Designed a proposed replacement of a filter assembly for a major

radiological ventilation system.

Analysis of work places and compliance considerations for development of

procedures for high risk work and high dose rates involving alpha, beta,

and gamma radiation. The procedures also contained the methodologies to be

employed to ensure industrial safety and OSHA compliance.

Developed a method for tracking and continuously adjusting many variables

to accurately predict personnel external exposure, for use in optimizing

ALARA.

Developed the HEPA Vacuum System methodology requirements document for the

company.

Philotechnics, Limited West

Mifflin, PA

Environmental, Safety, and Health Engineer

2003 - 2004

Provided general employee safety direction.

Performed job surveillance for general employee safety evaluation for

compliance with OSHA and local requirements.

Developed safety training programs.

Provided personnel training in safety and industrial hygiene.

Enercon Services, Incorporated BOMARC

Missile Site, NJ

Site Certified Health Physicist

2002 - 2003

Provided direction for radiological safety and was mobile laboratory

supervisor for site remediation.

Developed a database to both track and also compute personnel dose from air

sample results.

Developed a database to store and track radiological survey results.

Directed many of the activities of several Radiological Control

Technicians.

Directed the operation of radiological counting equipment including a

multichannel analyzer utilizing an intrinsic germanium detector for

analysis of soil samples, and a multi-sample low-level alpha-beta counter

for counting air samples and swipe samples.

Enercon Services, Incorporated at Kerr-McGee Remediation Site

Cushing, OK

Health Physics Technical Lead 2000 -

2002

Provided statistical and technical assistance primarily to the Enercon team

and secondarily to NEXTEP in support of the Kerr-McGee Corporation's

project to remediate the site.

Developed a database in Microsoft Access that tracked and graphically

plotted thousands of soil sample results.

Integrated Microsoft Access and Microsoft Excel so that they freely

communicated-resulting in enhanced capability of plotting results, even

when the number of sample points exceeded the capabilities of Microsoft

Excel.

Developed a computer code for calculation of radon daughter contribution to

air sample results.

Provided technical expertise in Minimum Detectable Activity calculations

for radiac instruments.

Onsite Environmental Staffing at BWX Technologies, Inc.

Lynchburg, VA

Radiological Engineer 1999

Provided technical and general operations support as a consultant (through

the I.T. Group) to BWX Technologies.

Developed methodology for MARSSIM based uncontrolled radiological release

of a large area as well as implementation of additional statistical

techniques to assist in that effort.

Wrote the implementation plan for release of the area surveyed.

Provided internal dose hazard assessment due to the presence of trace

contaminates in feed material for reactor fuel.
