As a champion of Practical Design, Brian understands the need to stretch every transportation dollar given the reality of shrinking funding sources. He is actively involved in the Transportation Research Board (TRB) as a member of the Geometric Design committee (AFB10), the Operational Effects of Geometrics committee (AHB65), a panel member of NCHRP Project 07-23 Access Management in the Vicinity of a Freeway Interchange, a panel member of NCHRP Project 15-56 Ramp Design Speed and a member of the Context Sensitive Solutions Subcommittee.
Brian is known as one of the nation’s top geometrics engineers and has contributed to projects with a combined total estimated construction value of over $8 billion. Brian excels at bringing innovation and creativity to the study and design process to uncover cost-effective solutions for DOTs. Read about his approach to one of these solutions - Diverging Diamond Interchanges (DDIs) - in this Point/Counterpoint Analysis.
Brian attended The Ohio State University where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering.
Drawing on his experience as an Environmental Engineer with a background in per- and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS) treatment and remediation research, Brian designs innovative solutions to address existing and anticipated PFAS-related regulations. In addition to leading industrial and domestic wastewater treatment and evaluation projects, Brian actively advocates for clients on compliance issues. He is the only non-member of the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (OEPA) to the be appointed to the Technical PFAS Workgroup, which advises treatment options.
Through numerous journal publications and presentations at seminars and conferences across the US, Brian has helped shape discussions around PFAS-related issues including fate and transport, health implications, and treatment technologies. His recent articles include: Physico-chemical Destructive Technologies for Treatment of PFAS; State-of-the-Science: Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Drinking Water, A PFAS Primer: Part I and Part II; PFAS: Sources, Regulations, and Treatment Options; and What are Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS)?
Brian holds Bachelor of Science degrees in Civil and Environmental Engineering and Pure Mathematics from the University of Cincinnati, and a Master of Science degree in Environmental Engineering from the University of California, Berkeley.
