My mission is to provide engineering geologic investigations for a variety of construction projects, responding to the needs and schedule of the client. I use innovative techniques to identify potential geologic hazards and to effectively communicate conditions, risks, and alternatives to the client. I provide forensic investigations of landslide and fault related distress and expert witness services.
I have been the principal investigative geologist on hundreds of construction projects and distressed properties for over 25 years. I named the Blossom Hill fault and documented evidence of recent movement on this thrust fault in the Los Gatos hills.

The greater San Francisco Bay Area is recognized by Geologists and Seismologists as one of the most active seismic regions in the United States.
Three major fault zones pass through the Bay Area in a northwest direction which have produced approximately 12 earthquakes per century strong enough to cause structural damage.
The faults causing such earthquakes are part of the San Andreas Fault System, a major rift in the earth's crust that extends for at least 700 miles along western California.
The San Andreas Fault System includes the San Andreas, Hayward, and Calaveras Fault Zones.
