Passionate about creating resilient and sustainable coastal communities, I bring extensive experience in coastal and ocean engineering to my role as Senior Coastal Engineer at VHB. With a focus on innovative solutions for waterfront development challenges, I'm dedicated to helping clients navigate the complexities of climate change impacts.Key areas of expertise:• Coastal and ocean engineering• Port and waterfront climate adaptation design• Climate risk evaluation• Resilient infrastructure developmentAs part of VHB's Coastal Engineering and Resiliency practice, I collaborate with multidisciplinary teams to deliver adaptive, scalable solutions that protect infrastructure and enhance quality of life in coastal areas. My approach combines cutting-edge scientific knowledge with practical engineering applications to address the growing risks posed by sea-level rise, storm surge, and extreme weather events.Previously, I served as Assistant Research Professor of Coastal Adaptation and Resilience at Old Dominion University and Research Fellow at the Chesapeake Bay Foundation. Committed to advancing the field, I'm an active member of the ASCE COPRI Piers and Wharves Design Standards Working Group.
