25+ years of direct, field-tested expertise in industrial cooling water treatment — not a firm supervising junior consultants from an office.
A senior independent consultant with over 25 years of experience in industrial cooling water treatment, chemistry, and digital optimization.
My career was built at Nalco Water — part of Ecolab — where I served as Director of Marketing for the IMEA region (India, Middle East, and Africa), one of the most technically demanding and commercially complex water treatment markets in the world. I built and led the technical and marketing function across that region, working directly with some of the most sophisticated facility operators in refining, petrochemical, and heavy industrial sectors.
My expertise spans the full cooling water value chain: first-principles chemistry and speciation modeling, corrosion and scale prediction, digital twin development, vendor program design, and senior commercial strategy for major industrial accounts. I have been at the table for hundreds of program audits, vendor RFPs, and performance disputes — on both sides of the relationship.
I built my own PHREEQC-based chemistry engine — a speciation and corrosion prediction platform covering 70+ salt species, full O₂ and CO₂ gas handling, and pressure and temperature correction — the same class of technical rigor as enterprise platforms like OLI Systems' Flowsheet:ESP, purpose-built for industrial cooling tower systems.
I work independently. No chemical products. No treatment services. No vendor relationships that compromise my advice. My income depends entirely on the quality and independence of my technical judgment — which is exactly why clients hire me.
I am based in New York and work with clients across North America, the Middle East, India, and South America.
25+ years in industrial cooling water and chemistry at director-level, across Nalco Water's most complex markets. You are not talking to a former field representative. You are talking to the person those field representatives called.
A proprietary PHREEQC-based chemistry engine covering 70+ salt species, full gas handling, pressure and temperature correction, and corrosion prediction — the same class of capability as OLI Systems' enterprise platform, built from the ground up for cooling tower systems.
No chemical product line. No hardware to sell. No vendor affiliations. This is the rarest and most valuable position in water treatment — a senior expert whose only interest is your outcome, structurally decoupled from which supplier wins.
Start with a 30-minute call. No pitch, no obligation — just a direct conversation about your program and whether an independent review makes sense.
