Specialties & Experience of this Expert Witness

Additional Information

CONSTRUCTION I entered the construction industry in the 1980s and worked my way through college framing buildings on Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket, and Boston. I started my own construction company in 2001 that specialized in lead paint abatement, mold abatement, and single family/ multi-family remodeling. We performed over nearly 250 projects for clients spanning from New York to Maine. At the same time, I performed over 30 residential rehabilitations of single and multi-family properties in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. I currently hold a Massachusetts Unlimited Construction Supervisor's License (CS-113267) ENGINEERING As an engineering consultant I completed over 175 projects of all sizes, and I have created more than 500 PE- stamped deliverables. Several engineering projects included expert witness services. Smaller engineering projects include beam calculations, construction deficiency reports, and a multitude of repair schematics. Medium-sized projects include ice dam studies on large buildings, structural and/or architectural plan sets (in REVIT), and building envelope assessments. Larger projects were typically construction administration projects that included different elements building dynamics. Larger projects usually included subcontractors and long project schedules, all of which my team and I performed performed in the field leveraging a multitude of technologies. Thank you.
