• Performed geologic and geophysical processing, interpretation, and analysis to further understanding of play basins; Create isopachs, structure maps and 3D models at the exploration and development level across numerous onshore and offshore basins. • Marcellus and Fayetteville development; well planning & economics; AFE creation & approval; regulatory compliance. • Served as On-Call Geophysicist four+ actively drilling rigs at a time • Incorporated well and seismic data for generation of structure maps & well path planning, while continuing to prospect for new potential. • Designed and completed projected utilizing seismic attributes to interpret, quantify, and predict features seen during geosteering to optimize well plans, reducing risk and circumventing $104M+ in potential loss. • Performed look back studies for production analysis; helping to identify key areas to prioritize infilling program. • Analyzed five companies’ reprocessing submissions; recommended and gained approval at board meeting to reprocess seismic data; delivered new insight for ROI calculations and drilling hazards. • Tied 2D seismic lines and synthetic well ties, mapped salt structure and formations of interest; performed inversion for signs of lateral porosity changes in North Louisiana Salt Basin. • Tasked with interpreting two 3D datasets for fracture play appraisal work of Upper and Lower Smackover in Northern Louisiana. • Ensured technical completeness and accuracy while utilizing various geophysical attributes and well log instruments in a wide variety of software programs Fayetteville Shale Development Geophysicist January-June 2014 Brown Dense Appraisal - June-December 2014 Marcellus Shale Development Geophysicist January-June 2015 New Ventures Exploration - June-Layoff Show less

Interpreted subsalt formations on reprocessed RTM 3-D seismic volume and integrated with data from petrophysicists to produce volume estimates of a joint venture prospect in Garden Banks, Gulf of Mexico. Interpreted suprasalt mini-basin development to better understand allochthonous salt movement .
