He served as a civilian scientist and subject matter expert for the NYPD’s Counterterrorism Division.
As a scientist, he earned a doctorate in Environmental Science, where he examined cosmic radiation exposure and how it has changed over the history of life on Earth. His most recent book is Radiological and Nuclear Terrorism,published by Springer in 2021.
