What I'm looking for

I seek field-focused roles in drilling or geoscience teams where I can apply logging, modeling and safety skills, grow technically, and contribute to accurate, timely subsurface data for operational decision-making.

I am a detail-oriented Junior Mud Logger with hands-on experience monitoring drilling fluid properties, collecting and analyzing cuttings, and operating specialized gas-analysis equipment to support safe, efficient drilling operations. I have worked across field roles from roustabout to sample catcher and mud logger, contributing to data-driven daily reports and collaborating with senior staff to identify subsurface hazards.

I also have experience as a Geosciences Software Analyst using Surfer, Petrel and ArcGIS to build 3D subsurface models and automated workflows, producing maps, cross-sections and visualizations to aid interpretation. I prioritize safety, accuracy, and repeatable processes to reduce errors and improve communication with drilling teams and management.
