About

I have a Ph.D. in Geophysical Sciences and extensive experience in academic and practical aspects of geosciences, with diverse set of responsibilities particularly at the intersection of energy and climate change. My comprehensive skill set includes personnel supervision, grant writing and management, research project development in geosciences and environmental sciences, and industry consulting. My research experience includes multidimensional data analysis, temporal analysis, data mining, and my expertise is in subsurface analysis, including mapping, core, well log and petrological analyses, construction of cross sections, building conceptual models.
