I have covered some of North America's most extreme hurricanes including the 170 m.p.h eyewall of Hurricane Andrew and Katrina's catastrophic
storm surge. My services include complete media guide services from pre-hurricane planning though the actual hurricane strike. I am also a
Certified EMT and Tactical Combat Casualty Care Specialist who can travel with your team and provide medical assistance if required. My 30-plus
years experience of surviving multiple natural disasters with over 20 FEMA certifications can assist media and commercial interests with all aspects
of hurricane chasing, storm safety, consulting and survival.

As a hurricane chaser, I prefer to work right on the coast when a storm hits. It can be the most dangerous area but it provides the most graphic
images and footage. The secret is finding a location that will survive the hurricane's maximum expected winds and storm surge. For a Category 5
storm, with winds of 136 knots (157 m.p.h) or higher, and a storm surge possibly topping 20 feet, I must choose wisely. During Hurricane Katrina
(a category 3 storm), the storm surge in Biloxi, MS topped 26 feet. Two of the structures I pre-planned for riding out the storm were destroyed.

Although Hurricane Katrina will always be remembered for the tragic flooding in New Orleans, areas along the Gulf Coast suffered extreme damage
from the storm surge that reached around 28 feet. Following Katrina, I conducted an extensive survey of coastal areas to learn how people survived
or perished. This first hand survival knowledge cannot be learned in books. I will apply the lessons learned to educate myself and others when the
next hurricane strikes.
