Introduction

I serve as an expert witness with extensive experience in inspections and code enforcement. I specialize in evaluating residential properties for compliance with the implied warranty of habitability and applicable California building standards.

With decades of hands-on fieldwork and regulatory enforcement experience, I am skilled at analyzing complex construction and code issues and presenting technical findings in a clear, persuasive, and understandable manner for judges, juries, and counsel.

My expertise consists of all phases of building construction, with advanced proficiency in California code research, interpretation, and application. I possess specialized knowledge in electrical power systems across residential, commercial, and heavy industrial installations, as well as extensive experience in renovations, upgrades, substandard housing conditions, unsafe dwellings, and conversations involving
habitable and non-habitable spaces.
