About

I am a professional Geophysicist with Calgary based oil and gas experience. I am widely recognized for exceptional team work and problem solving skills. My primary experience involves interpretation of seismic data and planning drilling programs. I am also proficient in the area of coalbed methane (CBM), with my Master's thesis focusing in this topic. I am competent in the following technologies: - Seisware - Hampson-Russell - Geosyn 2D - Petra - Accumap - Geoscout, - Kingdom Suite - Petrel I am currently looking for a new role in which to apply my skills as a Geophysicist and would welcome the opportunity to discuss the needs of your organization.
