Overall GPA: 3.16 GPA in major: 3.38 GPA for last year: 3.68
Professional Experience:
2006-Present: Geophysical Field Engineer: Colog, Lakewood, CO
Duties: Data logging of/and field interpretation of geophysical log reports obtained through various probes and sub surface methods. WellCAD, MGX II, and Sophris software used often. Project Manager for Geophysical Well Logging in Beluga, AK. Project Manager for Geophysical Well Logging in Donlin Creek, AK, and Tsimiroro, Madagascar Africa. Hydrophysical Well logging and project completion. HAZWOPER 40 hour certificate.
2005 Entry Level Geologist Internship: Anglo Gold Ashanti, Cripple Creek, CO
Duties: Structural and geologic mapping of the Cripple Creek volcanic diatreme complex, including: setting ore control, working with exploration drillers, sample collection, highwall mapping, RC chip logging, as well as documenting general observations concerning structural gold controls and hydrothermal volcanic emplacement of minerals. AutoCAD, Mine Sight, and Fusion programs often used. MSHA 24 hour certificate
2004 Field Assistant: Colorado Geological Survey: Gunnison, CO
Duties: Structural and geologic mapping of Almont 7.5 minute quadrangle, including obtaining control points, sample gathering, thin section construction, and sample analysis in petrographic reports. GPS and GIS used during the project.
2003 Teaching Assistant: Western State College of Colorado, Gunnison, CO
Duties: Teaching assistant for Geology 105, Physical Geology Laboratory.
Responsible for assisting in lab instruction and the grading of lab assignments for a class of 25 students.
Projects in Geology:
Petroleum:
A.) Geochemical and thermal modeling of the Phosphoria – Weber, the Mowry – Dakota, and the Green River – Wasatch petroleum systems in the Uinta Basin, Utah.
B.) Stratigraphic correlation and reservoir characterization and mapping of the Upper Douglas Creek Member of the Green River Formation, Monument Butte Field, Utah.
C.) Fluid saturation and petrophysical analysis of the Weber reservoir, Rangely field, Colorado.
D.) Volumetric analysis of reserves at Rangely field, CO
E.) Structural contour map of Paleozoic strata of Skull Creek monocline through Rangely anticline using surface, well, and 2D seismic data.
F.) 2-D seismic-structural and seismic-stratigraphic interpretation, N.P.R.A, Alaska.
Petrology and Volcanology:
A.) Research project on Tomichi Dome, an Oligocene ryholite flow dome west of Gunnison, CO. Project included geologic field mapping of volcanic features and quaternary deposits, as well as sample collection and petrographic analysis. Dome was mapped using GIS software in which volume calculations were also obtained.
B.) Research project on Mt. St. Helens where presentation was made to the Gunnison Rotary Club on activities the volcano was enduring in the fall of 2004, and including documentation concerning the 1980 eruption.
Basin Analysis:
A.) Structure and deposition analysis of the Triassic Moenkopi Formation, Gateway, CO to Fisher Towers, UT
Awards:
A.) Nominated for the 2005 NAGT/USGS Cooperative Summer Geosciences Internship Program
B.) Recipient of the Rocky Mountain Association of Geologists “Outstanding Senior Geology Student” award at Western State College of Colorado in May 2005.
Computer Application Experience:
Basin Mod 1-D: Construction of figures displaying burial history of petroleum systems using well log data.
Petra: Well log correlations, creating isopach maps for unit depositional strike trends, sub-surface contours for structural identification of petroleum systems, shale corrections made through: (importing equations for density logs, neutron logs and water saturation curves). Volumetrics estimates made for recoverable reserves figures
Kingdom Suite: Used seismic profiles to map sedimentary and structural relationships occurring with the NPRA.
Arc GIS: Used to compile field data from various mapping projects: including volumetric, contact location, defining attribute layers to compile strike and dip data, 3-D overlay projections, importing of USGS topographic map data, aid in creation of cross sections, and identification of private and public property locations
Auto CAD: Structural highwall map creation, basic training in pit design applications, sample locations to be exported into a query builder program.
Mine Sight: Limited ore control krieging
Fusion: Used to identify grade worthy ore zones for rock sampling that underwent fire and shake leach assays.
WellCAD: Bore hole data processing.
*** Skilled in Excell, Word, PowerPoint, and various other PC based programs***
Certificates:
First year miner MSHA open pit 24 hour certificate and 8 hour refresher
HAZWOPER 40 hour certificate
Level One Radiation and Nuclear materials handling certificate
