At Westwood I do what I have always done - channeling a sophisticated understanding, organizational acumen and honed intuition to help clients, empower teammates and savor the effort. My long-term experience with environmental diligence, investigation and remediation on land redevelopment projects in the Upper Midwest is now complemented by Westwood's extensive portfolio of renewable energy clients and projects nationwide. These sorts of pursuits present some exciting and nuanced differences from previous work, while also allowing me to engage my strengths to enhance our practices, products and outcomes. A win for myself, employer, clients and environment. This work is a worthy capstone to a terrific career.

Whatever else my career as a professional geologist in the consulting industry has taught me, above all I have learned that people like to be treated like... well... people. As a senior professional working on a flexible basis, I was empowered to share expertise and perspective with my clients and colleagues, rooted in personal integrity and a desire to be genuinely helpful.My practice areas included due diligence (Phase I/II ESAs), independent professional review, soil/water/vapor investigations, remediation scopes/plans/budgets, regulatory agency assistance, and comprehensive brownfield cleanup/grant consultation. I also helped clients to coordinate trusted environmental service providers for other specialty disciplines - from my employer when available or from my extensive network when more appropriate.The arc of my career has been directed toward these objectives: help each other build something worthwhile, achieve success, and make the world better!
