Junaid Razvi

Junaid retired from GA in March 2018, just shy of his 40th work anniversary. Former GA colleagues may best remember him for his work on TRIGA reactor programs, and especially as the Director of GA’s TRIGA Reactors Facility at Torrey Pines where he has hosted regular tours of the reactor complex for employees and visitors, showing off the Cerenkov “blue glow” and explaining the science behind it. In addition to his work with TRIGA projects, Junaid’s career at GA spanned engineering and project management on HTGR projects, nuclear waste management, medical radioisotopes projects and initiatives, and as Chair of GA’s Corporate Criticality & Radiation Safety Committee. Not opting for full and complete retirement just yet, he currently supports several companies as an independent consultant (LinkedIn), is a Senior Fellow at the U.S. Nuclear Industry Council, in addition to renewing his interest in gardening, biking and hiking. He and his wife Anjum have lived in Rancho Penasquitos for 40+ years where both their children grew up.
