QUALIFICATIONS IN BRIEF:
Most recent experience includes 2 years as a project manager on a $240 million capital project for the
detailed design, construction and startup of a brownfield 8,500 metric ton per year Solstice™ yf (HFC-
1234) refrigerant production plant (refrigerant replacing R-134a for automobile A/C system). Prior to
moving into Project Management, I was the Project Development Engineer responsible for the
development of this project from lab piloting through the front end loading scoping/budgeting refinement
phases FEL-1, 2 & 3 to eventual funding approval.
Prior experience includes 35 years as a Project Development Engineer for projects ranging in value from
as small as $5 million to as large as $700 million, from retrofits to brownfield to grass-roots, and over a
broad range of technologies that include: 1) solid feed gasification plants producing hydrogen, power and
steam, 2) steam methane reformers producing hydrogen and CO, 3) gas and solid fuel fired cogeneration
power plants, 4) chemical plants including refrigerant producing fluorocarbon processes (e.g. HFC-1234
& HFC-125), polyurethane intermediates (DNT, TDA), polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH), amines and methanol,
and 5) air separation plants.
In the Project Development role I have been responsible for the management of internal and external
engineering resources in the preparation of technology assessments, acquisition assessments, bid
proposals for external "Request for Proposal" solicitations and the development of internal project
opportunities from concept through full funding authorization. This includes: 1) preparation of capital cost
estimates/budgets, operating costs and schedules for feasibility screening, pre-FEED and FEED
estimates, 2) collaboration with the Financial Analysis Department in the preparation of discounted cash
flow financial analyses at all phases of opportunity development, and 3) collaboration with the Business
Department in the preparation of project justification and full funding expenditure authorization requests.
Additionally, during the execution phase of projects I have been responsible for supporting the Project
Engineering Department in monitoring project actuals against budget, managing baseline changes in
scope and preparing cost and status reports.

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE:
2015 to Present Project Manager, Performance Materials & Technologies
Honeywell International, Inc., Morris Plains, NJ
Responsible for managing capital projects from full funding approval through
startup/turnover to Plant Operations for the Performance Materials & Technologies
group of Honeywell. In this capacity I have been a member of the project team for the
detailed design, construction and startup of a $240 million Solstice™ yf mobile air
conditioning refrigerant production plant at Honeywell’s Geismar, LA fluorocarbons
facility. My responsibilities on this project include:
 Managing the timely preparation, submittal & receipt of all permits (air, wetlands,
archeological investigation, wastewater treatment effluent discharge,
construction within levee zone, storm water pollution prevention plan, spill
prevention, control & countermeasures plan
 Managing the preparation, review & approval of request for quotations, technical
bid evaluations & recommendation for awards for equipment.
 Managing the completion of the process hazards analyses.
 Managing the review & approval of vendor document submittals for equipment,
3rd
party engineering firm detailed design drawings & construction bid packages.
 Managing the closure of the 3rd
party detailed design engineering firm’s office at
the completion of detailed design.
 Moved to construction site Project Management at the end of detailed design
assisting in the management of equipment deliveries & construction work &
resolution of field design/construction issues.
2009 to 2014 Senior Principal Project Development Engineer, Performance Materials &
Technologies
Honeywell International, Inc., Morristown, NJ
Responsible for development of capital projects from concept through full funding
approval for the Performance Materials & Technologies group of Honeywell.
Experience highlights include:
 Development of a project to build a commercial scale plant to produce
Solstice™ yf (GWP  1) , the next generation environmentally friendly
automobile air conditioning system refrigerant, to replace the current refrigerant
used in automobiles, R134a (GWP = 1,300). Development of this project
spanned 4 years from lab piloting of the process through FEL options sorting,
screening and scoping/budgeting refinement stages 1, 2 & 3. It culminated in
the approval of a $240 million project to construct an 8,500 metric ton per year
Solstice™ yf (HFC-1234) plant at Honeywell’s existing fluorocarbons complex in
Geismar, LA. During the development of the project’s scope, value
improvement ideas were identified that reduced the project’s budget by 5 million
dollars.
 Assessment of another company’s technology readiness to build a semi-
commercial HFC-1234 environmentally friendly refrigerant plant. Honeywell’s
decision to partner with the company on this investment was based on this
assessment.
 Management of a trial to demonstrate a new mechanical seal design for the
agitator of a reactor with a highly corrosive and toxic process environment.

 Development of a $60 million project to install three (3) SCR NOX abatement
trains in three separate phases over a period of 3 years at a Honeywell’s
Hopewell, Viginia caprolactum facility.
 Preparation of a technology licensing package for a 10,000 metric ton per year
HFC-125 refrigerant plant for a Chinese partner.
 Preparation of a Six Sigma Greenbelt project evaluating the economics of
replacing a 30 year old ammonia dissociator that produces hydrogen for the
uranium ore reduction process at Honeywell’s Metropolis, Illinois plant with
either a liquid hydrogen tank/vaporizer system or a small packaged SMR
hydrogen generator. The study concluded a liquid hydrogen tank/vaporizer
system was the most economic option. The ammonia dissociator was later
replaced by the plant project group with a liquid hydrogen tank/vaporizer system
resulting in significant operating cost savings and safety risk reduction.

I prepared numerous feasibility studies for asphaltene and pet-coke fed gasification
facilities with varying combinations of hydrogen, syngas, substitute natural gas, power
and steam productions for potential opportunities in the U.S., Canada and China.
Capital investments for these opportunities typically range from 1.5 to 2 billion dollars.
Also, I have prepared the following gasification economic studies: 1) asphaltene vs.
petcoke feed, 2) hydrogen vs. power production, 3) Fischer-Tropsch liquids
production, and 4) hydrogen production via asphaltene/petcoke gasification vs natural
gas SMR.
