Energy executive at BKV Corporation who originated Class VI CO2 sequestration projects and advanced CCS venture development.

United States
Message

At BKV Corporation, I built the CCS venture from concept into a formal business unit. I originated two Class VI CO2 sequestration projects in Louisiana and Texas and secured a preliminary drilling permit for Donaldsonville.

At Novi Labs, I managed about half of the client portfolio and contributed $3MM to annual SaaS revenue. I led machine learning development planning engagements with about 30 E&P companies, improving well placement and completion value by an average of 30% per client.

At Noble Energy, I established the company's first data analytics function. By training engineers in Python and applied machine learning, I helped embed predictive workflows in operating decisions and delivered more than $100MM in annual incremental development value.

Earlier, I directed development planning and reservoir management across Noble Energy's DJ Basin acreage, adding 80 MMBOE of proved undeveloped reserves annually for two consecutive years. My work spans upstream development, carbon management, and AI commercialization, backed by a Chicago Booth MBA and professional engineering licenses in Alaska.
