His dissertation was entitled "Bubble Dynamics in Electrolytic Gas Evolution” (Electrochemical Engineering) with Charles Tobias and Morton Denn.
As part of his work he devised an optical-laser technique to record fluid dynamics during hydrolysis and experimented with surface tension, viscosity, electrode polarity, and bubble size.
There he led a manufacturing engineering team in developing and implementing a process for reducing friction and contamination in advanced computer hard drives.
[citation needed] He then worked for LFR Levine Fricke in Emeryville California 1998 through 2002 as a chemical engineering and environmental consultant.
In this capacity, he designed and implemented wastewater treatment plants using chemical, electrolytic or membrane separation processes.
His numerous publications and achievements have earned him international recognition as an expert in energy recovery and process optimization in reverse osmosis systems.
In addition, in his current role as Vice President of Sales, he is responsible for strategic growth and risk management.
As Desalitech's Executive Vice President since 2010, he has been responsible for market strategy, customer and technical support and growth of the company's leadership role in high efficiency water treatment.
