## About

```text
At KMG Engineering, I analyzed production enhancement and well-performance data to identify issues and optimization opportunities. I also evaluated unprofitable wells and provided data-driven recommendations that supported cost-reduction decisions.

As a Reservoir Engineer at KMG Engineering, I used quantitative reservoir analysis to select wells for production-to-injection and injection-to-production transfers, and designed re-completion and re-perforation programs. I analyzed thermal field behavior, water cut dynamics, and injection compensation to investigate production decline and optimize recovery strategies.

My oil and gas work has also included geological mapping and reserve estimation at KMG Engineering, and slickline, wireline, and perforating services at Halliburton. Through project work and training, I’ve developed practical experience with Python, SQL, and machine learning, including tested applications and REST APIs.
