Jake has over 23 years of experience and is a highly motivated and experienced individual who integrates his extensive background experience
and in-depth understanding in the planning organizing, leadership and implementation of mining ventilation infrastructure designs, projects and construction. He prioritizes safety for all projects while providing a diversity of cost-effective engineering and project management services for mine ventilation projects of varying complexity in the conceptual, pre-feasibility, feasibility, planning, evaluation, and implementation phases.
John is a Consultant with over 6 years of experience in mine ventilation system design and analyses for metal, non-metal, and coal mines around the
world; plans, coordinates and conducts ventilation surveys of underground mines. He provides short courses in underground mine ventilation measurement, planning and modeling, and conducts ventilation audits for underground mines. He manages the NQA-1 quality assurance program for SRK’s work in subsurface nuclear facilities.subsurface nuclear facilities.
