Bob is a seasoned consultant, educator, supervisor, mentor: a dedicated and professional engineer with published results from applying information solutions in process engineering designs, startup, optimization, operation & environmental stewardship.  He's an efficient problem-solver and project leader; integrating business processes with info. tech. to deploy analysis, process/HSE modeling, geospatial, web best practices & collaborative solutions.

Like so many in refining/petrochemicals/HSE, his career has paralleled that of global oil and gas. Born and educated as a "Kiwi", he emigrated to the US where he's lived ever since, except for 8 years in the 80's back in NZ teaching process design & working in a $1.2 billion Synfuels plant.

His life journey as an adult started in the 1970's with Ph.D. grad school, then Design and Startups; in 1980's with undergrad Teaching, then Operations; 1990's with R & D, then Corporate HSE, plus federal consulting 1998-2005; now back doing Refinery and Upstream HSE Design.

Because of resurgence in demand for clean fuels, refining capacity and heavy oil projects, Bob was fortunate to be on the design of the first new US refinery in 30 years, built alongside the last one. He's also an invited member of "Society of Industrial Leaders" in refining & petrochemical sector.

Bob enjoys his work, particularly when it involves inter-disciplinary or intellectual challenges. A key to professional satisfaction has been involvement in technical advocacy of sound science at API - developing Refinery MACT guidance - and PERF, leading Environmental projects & forums.

His life-skills development is also sustained by his professional, technology and civic association activity, and by University-level teaching: full-time as Senior Lecturer in 1983-1985, as Research Adjunct in 2002-2004, and Teaching Adjunct in 2006.
