He worked for the National Defense University for twelve years.[1][2] He then served on staff for the United States Navy for three years.[1][2] He went on to work for the U.S. General Accounting Office's Energy and Minerals Division.[1][2]

He joined the RAND Corporation in 1998, where he served as Senior Management Scientist and Professor at the Frederick S.
