I am a neuropsychologist licensed in Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and South Dakota, specializing in the intersection of brain function and legal standards. With experience in an estimated 200+ testimonies on civil and criminal cases over 26 years of practice, I provide thorough, evidence-based, neuropsychological independent examinations that meet the standard of care and the Daubert standard for cases involving traumatic brain injury, cognitive impairment, and psychological disability. A full symptom/performance validity assessment is completed to rule-out suboptimal effort or malingering. I deliver clear, defensible expert opinions that withstand rigorous cross-examination and translate complex neuroscientific data into actionable insights for the court. I am available for nationwide travel for evaluations and testimony, as well as record reviews and second opinions.
