    | J. Ray Meyer

    Speakers

    J. Ray Meyer, P.E.

    President of J.R. Meyer & Associates in Sugar Land, TX

    Mr. Ray Meyer brings an extensive background of over 50 years in the field of Geotechnical Engineering, Construction Materials Engineering and Testing, and Forensic Investigations. His work is centered on challenges related to expansive and soft soils, soil-structure interactions, and the testing of construction materials for large, complex projects in the public and private sectors.

    In his role as an Adjunct Professor in the College of Engineering at the University of Houston, Mr. Meyer instructs courses on Construction Materials Testing, and Soils Mechanics and Foundation Engineering. This teaching role has refined his ability to demystify complex engineering concepts for individuals with little to no technical background, making him adept at conveying ideas to non-engineers and those with non-engineering backgrounds.

    Mr. Meyer’s career spans a wide range of civil engineering projects, where he has applied his geotechnical expertise to design and analyze structures such as bridges, waterfront structures, deep foundations (e.g., piles, auger cast piers), slabs, pavements, runways, channels, levees, and drainage systems. His work includes critical aspects of industrial paving, airport runways, side slope stability, groundwater drainage, and complex construction scenarios like cofferdams and wet wells and earth retaining structures.

    Additionally, Mr. Meyer is highly experienced in geotechnical forensic investigations, which involve analyzing structure issues such as foundation failures, pavement distress, slope stability, bulkhead and pier performance, and site moisture problems. His forensic expertise also addresses issues stemming from soil movement due to environmental factors like drought and rainfall, underground utility failures, and interactions between foundations and site vegetation.

    Throughout his career, Mr. Meyer has served as a subject matter expert in disputes regarding foundation and pavement performance, making him a valuable resource for understanding and resolving complex geotechnical issues in civil engineering projects.

    | Devani Jolman + 2 Other Speakers

    Speakers

    Devani Jolman

    Scientist/Ph.D. candidate - Old Dominion University, in Norfolk, VA

    Ms. Jolman is a 3rd year Ecological Sciences PhD Candidate at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia. Her research focuses on understanding the ecological consequences of natural plant hybridization (crossing of two species) by studying wild hybrid blueberries across Virginia. Ms. Jolman research relies on the classification of plants to identify hybrids and their parent species; she uses genetics, plant traits, and pollinator interactions to explore the impact of hybrid plants. With the presence of hybrid plants increasing due to climate change, this work is increasingly relevant for conservation, management, and restoration purposes. In 2018, Ms. Jolman received a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Calvin University in Michigan; her undergraduate research worked to inventory the flora of West Michigan, relying heavily on plant identification in the field. During this time, Ms. Jolman also worked at a local Michigan Nature Center to develop educational programs for the county park. After graduation, She spent three years in Vermont as a Park Interpreter and Park Manager for Vermont State Parks, planning and facilitating ecological park programs for a diverse array of park patrons while managing park operations. Along with pursuing her PhD in Virginia, Ms. Jolman currently works with numerous organizations (Norfolk Botanical Gardens, schools, retirement groups, Master Naturalists, local non-profits, Botanical Society of America’s Planting Science, etc.) to provide plant-focused educational programs to the public. She believes strongly in the equitable communication of science and strives to continually bridge the gap between academic research and the public through education.

    Jarmila PItterman, Ph.D.

    Professor of Biology with the University of California, Santa Cruz

    Ms. Pitterman, Ph.D., is a Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at UC Santa Cruz. Dr. Pitterman enjoys mentoring students with a broad interest in plant physiology, evolution and structure and function. Her research involves a combination of field campaigns (collecting samples, using instruments to assess water potential, photosynthesis etc.), hydraulic measures, anatomy, and some degree of stable isotopes. Dr. Pitterman earned her MSc from the University of Toronto and her Ph.D. from the University of Utah.

    Tristram G. Seidler, Ph.D.

    Extension Assistant Professor of Biology with the University of Massachusetts Amherst

    Mr. Seidler was trained in plant ecology at the University of California Santa Cruz, and obtained his PhD at Harvard University, where he studied the spatial distribution of tropical trees in the ultra-diverse rainforest of Malaysia. He continued with a post-doc at Imperial College of London’s Centre for Population Biology, where he studied invasive plants in the herbaceous community of Argentina’s flooding pampas. After returning to the US, he took a job with Native Plant Trust, a not-for-profit organization that monitors rare plants in New England, among other activities. While there, he ran the Royal Kew Garden’s Millennium Seed Bank’s Northeast US seed banking program, and built a seed bank for the seeds of rare and endangered plants for Native Plant Trust. In 2013 he took a faculty position at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where he is Curator of the University of Massachusetts Herbarium, a medium-sized herbarium of 250,000 specimens, and teaches courses in botany and ecology.

    Gene Rovak

    Senior Project Manager at Horner & Shifrin, Inc.

    Mr. Rovak is a professional engineer and certified floodplain manager with over 40 years of experience in all aspects of floodplain management. His work requires understanding of FEMA regulations and interpretation of FEMA Flood Maps (FIRMs) and Flood Insurance Studies (FIS). Mr. Rovak has extensive experience in Letters of Map Changes (LOMCs), particularly Letters of Map Revisions (LOMRs), which have ranged from single reaches along a channel to large areas affecting many map panels. Related studies have ensured that infrastructure improvements such as bridges or docking facilities would not cause increase in flood heights (“no-rise” studies).

    Mr. Rovak’s experience has covered riverine flooding (river and creek channels) as well as level- pool environments (lakes and landlocked floodwater storage). He has performed hydraulic and hydrologic analysis of these systems working with a variety of computer models in the public domain such as Corps of Engineers and EPA, as well as proprietary programs such as ICPR and XP-SWMM. Mr. Rovak’s experience includes steady, unsteady, and network flow simulations.
