Mar 2018 - Nov 2019
Junior Geophysicist with a focus on mineral exploration in northeastern Ontario. Conducted and processed ground geophysical surveys including magnetic, EM, IP, and GPR surveys. IP surveys consisted of both traditional 2D IP and a newly acquired 3D Distributed IP system. Inversion modeling of IP data was done to produce resistivity and chargeability models of the subsurface.

Recipient of an NSERC Undergraduate Student Research Award (USRA), where I assisted Dr. Sheri Molnar with research and field work. I conducted site assessments at bridge sites and 20 seismic stations in Eastern Canada using refraction, IP, and ambient surveys. My research included further processing of wind turbine vibration data that I obtained for my undergraduate thesis.

May 2015 - Aug 2016
Daily troubleshooting and problem solving while processing and analyzing positional, altimeter, and magnetic airborne geophysical data during a 16 month internship. Created intermediate and finalized client products such as, proposals, plans, drapes, maps, and reports for surveys worldwide. Field experience obtained during a radiometric ground calibration survey along the Ottawa River.
