About Harold

Harold is a Senior Consultant at Raftelis who helps municipalities design and finance solid waste systems. Building on hands-on work with the City of Memphis, where he supported a citywide route redesign and implemented the commercial billing program, he develops financial models that link route design, fleet and staffing plans, and tip fee strategy to measurable outcomes such as diversion, landfill life, and rate stability. He turns operational data into clear financial plans that guide capital, staffing, and service decisions. His north star is lowering lifecycle cost per diverted ton while applying sustainability practices that reduce the built environment’s footprint on natural systems.
