CAREER HIGHLIGHTS HEALTH PHYSICIS T – NUCLEAR POWER
As a professional health physicist at nuclear power stations:
 Developed a regulatory compliance processes to reduce reliance on tribal knowledge by building complex, methodical
excel spreadsheets based on sampling plant waste streams for isotopic mixture. The spreadsheets calculate various
instrument efficiencies, verify portal monitor alarm set points, calculate internal radiation dose such as Limiting
Internal Dose Condition for both Committed Effective Dose Equivalent (CEDE) and Committed Dose Equivalent
(CDE) using both inhalation and ingestion pathways using Federal Report #11:
 Calculated the detectable Co-60 to non-detectable nuclide dose ratio (Co-60 internal dose multiplied by the non-
detectable dose factor would equal total internal dose from all waste stream nuclides. This simplifies assigning
internal dose based on easily detectable Co-60 and eliminates numerous complexities of whole body counting).
 Verified the radiation protection program assumptions provided positive dose margins for radiation instrumentation
 Verified that hard-to-detect nuclides were <10% of total dose
 Verified DAC airborne posting levels and provided technical basis for adjustments, if necessary to the DAC posting
level or changing the assumed RM-14 frisker efficiency.
 Wrote technical and administrative position papers, performed health physics calculations, wrote applied health physics
procedures for compliance with 10 CFR 20, using NRC, INPO, ANSI, NCRP documents and reports as references.
 Managed the radiation instrument calibration lab, staff performance coaching, evaluated radiation instrumentation
including authoring a beta correction factor paper on the RO-2 ion chamber, PM-7 portal monitors for internal dose at the
alarm set point.
 Managed the dosimetry department, staff performance coaching, performing internal and external dose calculations,
reviewing whole body counts and external dose results, and submitting the annual occupational dose report to the NRC.
 Managed and troubleshot the worker radiological control area (RCA) access/egress database and associated IT hardware,
identified opportunities to write queries and reports to extract data on dose trends and electronic dosimetry alarms.
 Prepared for regulatory audits, performing records review, and creating an audit hit list.
 As ALARA engineer reviewed workplace radiological hazards, wrote radiation protection work packages and ALARA
reviews based on man-rem estimates, oversaw worker pre-job briefs.
 Developed and documented EP dose assessment software for compliance with 10 CFR 50.47(b). Created lesson plans,
taught end users software operation, assisted in developing position qualifications with EP practical factor sign-
offs/JPMs, developed EP training drill scenarios and evaluated radiation protection staff performance during drills.
 Served as a member of the emergency response organization as dose assessor, and radiation protection manager.
 Served as a technical advisor for Peach Bottoms spent fuel pad during construction and initial spent fuel transfer
campaigns, performed calculations for expected neutron and gamma dose rate with high degree of accuracy.
 Reviewed off-site dose calculation manual (ODCM) for spent fuel pad impacts.

CAREER HIGHLIGHTS HEALTH PHYSICIS T – NUCLEAR POWER —PAGE FOUR OF FIVE
As Health Physics Technician (ANSI 3.1) at nuclear power plants:
 Performed in-field radiation, airborne and contamination surveys as necessary to analyze and evaluate radiological
workplace hazards against expected scope of work on the RWP/ALARA plan, briefed workers on radiological workplace
hazards and pre-approved RWP/ALARA plan limits, and methods to maintain ALARA. Wrote radiation work permits
(RWPs) from field surveys. Created radiological records as required.
 Took mitigating field actions to maintain radiological safety and control of radiological hazards during job coverage such
as posting areas, source term removal, shielding, area decontamination, radiological containments, worker precautions
(anti-Cs, respirators, etc.) preventing the spread of contamination by observing work in progress, worker coaching, and
maintaining radiological boundaries by situational awareness and appropriate field monitoring, calculating field stay
times, and if necessary enforcing stop work criteria. Served as a member of the emergency response organization as the
on-shift dose assessor.
 Personal rules of HP field coverage:
 Performed only the work that’s planned and briefed, plan the work, work the plan
 Be safe, time efficient, have the right equipment, verify proper work location, worker’s know their roles, do it right
the first time
 Maintain radiological boundaries and postings (dose rate, contamination, airborne) for planned/briefed work
 Don’t exceed the RWP or electronic dosimeter dose limit alarm set point
 Don’t contaminate workers skin or have internal uptakes, unless planned
 Went in doubt, stop and ask questions, don’t proceed in unknown situations
CAREER HIGHLIGHTS PROJECT MANAGEMENT-N UCLEAR POWER
EP Software Development-Achieved Exelon corporate technical changes by employing situational leadership including
modifying existing and creating new software processes, attention to detail, and implement changes through training while
overcoming political, technical, budgetary and cultural obstacles to achieve success. Working independently created and met
project milestones and deliverables as follows:
 Took over a failed off-site dose calculation software development project at EP managements’ request without prior
experience in either software development or off-site dose models. Became a self-taught subject matter expert in dose
assessment while learning IT hardware, software, interfaces issues while providing project staff oversight.
 Prioritized and made the following decisions to correct technical issues and keep the project on track.
 Kept the existing standardized MS Access graphical user interface (GUI) forms and calculated reports.
 Authorized the MS Access software code to be rewritten to professional standards and consistent conventions.
 Re-wrote incorrect math functions and operations for release of radioactive material.
 Due to the complexity of math operations, block modularized the math operations into 5 subtotals for ease of error
identification and software validation, created lookup math constants in database tables versus multiple hardcoded
values, saving significant time with final software validation.
 Customized the environmental release pathways to fit each nuclear power plant design IAW plant UFSAR and
Technical Specifications documents.
 Due to budgetary constraints, reduced staff to bare essentials to complete the project.
 Performed software validation testing, user manual documentation, created and taught lesson plans, practical factor sign-
offs, created end user emergency preparedness (EP) training qualifications, developed 60 EP training drill scenarios and
evaluated staff performance for position qualification.
 Overcame cultural barriers with training by identifying past outdated technical basis used in dose assessment and
supported new positions with updated industry and current government technical standards.
 Identified improper change management of key vested nuclear site stakeholders impeding project success to upper
corporate management. Required fixes included aligning key vested stakeholders performance goals and bonuses to
achieve corporate goals during large-scale corporate change.
 While developing EP software, participated in 4 FEMA bi-annual exercises including exercise development, exercise
performance evaluations and corrective actions. Served as liaison for state and local EP officials to coordinate exercise
objectives for inclusion into the site exercise EP scenario.
 Participated in graded drill scenario development, performance evaluations and corrective actions, including training.
Accomplishment: Implemented Exelon Nuclear corporate standardized dose assessment computer models at 3 nuclear
power plant sites in-under 2 years and qualified approximately 50 to 60 EP dose assessment positions.

procedure changes:
 Created and widely distributed a weekly site newsletter called “Changing Times” to communicate upcoming
procedure revisions.
 Created a Web site to post information on procedure revisions tracking initial procedure draft, comments on
procedure drafts, comment resolution, to final implementation called the “90 Days Look Ahead List”.
