      Nov. 2013 – Oct. 2014, Eastern New Exploration – Northern Division - Conducted a study on the Berea Sandstone in Eastern Kentucky, southern Appalachian Basin. The purpose was to add value to existing acreage and to identify possible horizontal drilling opportunities. Nov. 2012 – Nov. 2013, Eastern Division Regional Studies - Constructed a regional sequence stratigraphy interpretation of the Devonian section in the Appalachian Basin with the purpose of identifying other possible shale potential beyond the Marcellus Shale. Also conducted a regional maturity study of the Appalachian Basin evaluating SRA data from Cambrian, Ordovician and Devonian Aged rocks. Both projects were completed through collaboration with other team members on the regional studies team. Dec. 2010 – Nov. 2012, Operations geologist in the Marcellus Shale - Designed development plans and well plans, geo-steered over 80 wells, coordinated target lines of other geologist, collaborated on drill schedules with the land department, evaluated and made recommendations on all non-op elections, constructed x- sections, generated maps, analyzed mud logs and studied previously drilled wells for the purpose of high grading CHK acreage.
