With my field and research work, along with my academic experiences, I feel very comfortable working in the earth science industry. My work experience includes not only field and lab work, but also maintenance and an understanding of water chemistry, flow and pressure. I have been named on 3 research published articles and abstracts (to date) and recognized by the University of South Alabama with 4 geology awards. I look forward to applying my skills and knowledge to these important fields of physical and earth science. I am open to travel and relocation. I can start immediately.
