Consulting/Expert Witness Experience: I have been providing Design/Build Landscape Construction Services for San Diego County for over 40 years. That firsthand knowledge through construction experience and continued education is what I draw to for my opinions as an Expert Witness. In 2010 I started providing Expert Witness Services for multiple cases regarding the San Diego County Wildfires of 2007, and had also worked on the Wildfire cases of 2003 for a local nursery in Poway. Since then, I have reviewed and worked on cases for construction defect and personal injury within the landscape throughout California, as well as in Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, Florida, Michigan, New York Washington and South Carolina.
