Throughout his career, he has provided technical guidance to many high-impact modeling and simulation efforts, including FAA’s airport air quality Emissions and Dispersion Modeling System, and the subsequent multi-scale Aviation Environmental Design Tool.

Ted previously served as Chief, Environmental Standards, at the International Civil Aviation Organization, ICAO, where he was responsible for all activities related to setting international standards and policies for aircraft environmental performance. During his tenure, he oversaw the development of two new aircraft emissions standards for CO2 and non-volatile particulate matter, and the update of noise and NOx emissions standards. He also led the development of ICAO’s guidance material and support tools for the quantification of aviation’s impact on the environment.

Ted holds a bachelor of science degree in aviation from The Ohio State University and a master of science degree in systems engineering from Johns Hopkins University, and is a former flight instructor.
