Big water blog is a simple mechanism to share experiences and convey thoughts, ideas, work products and resources that may help people around the world better understand water.  I welcome comments, suggestions and am seeking qualified contributors to support the big water blog with additional perspectives and content.

I am a professional geologist, water resources professional and co-owner of Northwater International, an applied science and engineering company with a major water focus. I am also co-founder of an innovative water-centric technology startup called Water Technologies International.  I am passionate about applying my experience, expertise and skills to support economic development initiatives and philanthropic causes.

My work supports multi-laterals, bi-laterals, governments, NGOs and private-industry in the development, security and sustainability of groundwater and surface water resources. I specialize in and am passionate about finding solutions for regional and local water security, water quality and water access crises throughout the world.

I have served chief of party roles on major water supply development programs and have served volunteer board-level, advisor and technical consultant roles for regional water supply and watershed plans throughout the United States. Have received several awards for professional contributions in the water-sector and currently serve on the board of the American Institute of Professional Geologists (AIPG).

My work has taken me around the world – North America, Central America, Caribbean, South America, Central Africa, East Africa and Asia. I am currently active in multiple international working groups on the Haiti redevelopment as an expert on the country’s groundwater resources.
