Surfing the Wave of Change
Change is a part of life and a part of business. Those organizations that don’t or can’t change will be swept away by the “wave” of change. Leaders who don’t actively plan for and lead their organizations through change, will ultimately allow change to overwhelm them and their teams. -

Controlled Hydraulic Fracturing for Delivery of mZVI in Low Permeability Settings
Zero-valent iron (ZVI) is a proven amendment for in-situ chemical reduction of chlorinated solvents, and hydraulic fracturing is particularly well-suited for delivering high mass loadings of microscale ZVI (mZVI) into low-permeability and heterogeneous formations.
I love to serve the Society with my fellow SAME architects for such a good cause and along the way develop a strong bond both professionally and personally with these people. I can truly call them my friends.
