Who I Am

As a full-service weather consultant, I work closely with a diverse clientele to help them understand the impact of weather and climate change on any planned activity and take adaptive measures for risk management.

My broad-spectrum services also extend to forensic meteorology, where I provide accurate climate reconstructions and data acquisition for investigators, attorneys, and the film industry.

Education

I completed my Bachelor of Science (BS) in Meteorology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison between 1978 and 1982, followed by coursework in radar meteorology/hydrology from SUNY Albany in 1984.

Subsequently, I earned occupational certificates in Personnel Management from The Army Management Staff College, Human Interaction from The NTL Institute, Emergency Management from Texas A&M University and The Emergency Management Institute, and Incident Command System FEMA.
