Bio
Kevin Lee
I had the pleasure of teaching Sarah in the DU Data Analytics Boot Camp. Over the course of the curriculum, I have come to know Sarah as a fast learner, self-starter, and great problem solver. I was always impressed by her commitment to quality. All of her work are exceptionally well written and organized, making them easy to understand. I would rank Sarah at the top of the class in respect to clarity. This is a testament to her desire and ability to understand complex concepts. Overall, Sarah is highly intelligent and has great analytical skills. She approaches problems cautiously and methodically, which gives tremendous credit to the work she produces. Her academic success is matched with her interpersonal skills. In a collaborative environment, she is recognized by her team as a dependable thought leader, keeping projects on track for success. As such, she became a role model for other students who do not hesitate to approach her with questions. I highly recommend Sarah for future employers. She has demonstrated excellence in all of the assignments given to her. She raises the bar for future students and I’m excited to see the impact she will have.

Geosteering Geologist

May 2018 - Aug 2018
I remotely geosteered lateral wells in multiple basins using both gamma and seismic data to interpret geologic structure. I collect and interpreted real time data to provide guidance and suggestions to operations geologists to help keep the well in a target zone. This position requires maintaining strict drilling schedules and regulations while creating daily reports and updates. We watched multiple wells for multiple clients at a time.

I geosteered lateral wells in the Permian Basin (TX -USA) using gamma ray, resistivity and image data to keep the well in a target zone (4-40 ft thick). I correlated well logs as well as made 3D structural models to help clients understand the geology of their wells. Projects were completed both in the office and in the field on rigs. Client relations - placed in charge of one of largest clients. Communication with clients and rig personnel of well activities and real time steering decisions.Software: Petrel (expand GST plugin), Microsoft Office
