His introduction into emergency management consultation began with Hurricane Andrew in 1992. Since then, he has served in numerous management and technical positions overseeing over 40 million cubic yards of debris removal and trillions of dollars in damages and recovery. His experience includes grant management of federal recovery programs and debris removal monitoring.

• As part of the LEMOINE CDR Logistics Joint Venture, deployed and operated two Logistical Staging Areas (LSAs) for FDEM located at Cecil Airfield in Jacksonville and Buckingham Airfield in Lehigh Acres, Florida.

• CDR provided staff augmentation of 100 personnel to support the State and local agency response and recovery efforts through staff augmentation of the State EOC and the Town of Fort Myers Beach, which included Incident Command and General Staff, Procurement and Public Assistance Specialists, and Zoning & Permitting Support. Established a 500- and 1,000-bed Mass Congregate Shelters in the towns of Estero and North Ft. Myers Beach. CDR assisted in site identification, launching, staffing and management, as well as providing the vendor food services, janitorial/facility maintenance services, and logistics support. Crisis counselors and behavioral health staff were available at each shelter location. In support of Lee County’s hospital network, which experienced partial utility failures, CDR deployed a 100-bed capacity field hospital that had the ability to expand to 1,000 patients as needed. Throughout this deployment the ACS alleviated the hospital network of low acuity individuals consisting of decompressed medical surgical patients from area hospitals; homeless individuals requiring some medical care; and displaced patients from assisted living facilities damaged by the hurricane. These patients were cared for by a staff of General Practice and Emergency Doctors, Nurse Practitioners, Nurses, and Medical Assistants. CDR deployed a 10-Bed Emergency Department onto the Island of Fort Myers Beach. With many of the major hospitals challenged by Hurricane Ian devastation, this facility served residents and workers as roadways were repaired to the point that allowed their return for clean-up and the start of rebuilding.
