Some of his duties are supporting litigation through exposure and risk assessments, helping clients maintain regulatory compliance, developing sampling and analysis plans, and preparing summary reports following a project’s completion. Additionally, he serves on the Toxicology Emergency Response Program (TERP), providing 24/7/365 disaster support all across North America.
