As a PhD Systems Engineer specializing in unconventional reservoirs, I’ve pioneered novel methods like optical goniometry for shale wettability analysis and developed resistivity-contact angle correlations for non-invasive wettability prediction. With 6+ years of R&D experience, Google-certified project management, and hands-on work across CO₂ storage, production decline modeling, and AI-driven geospatial analysis, I transform complex energy challenges into actionable insights, empowering industries through data-driven decision-making.
2022 – 2025
Graduate Teaching Assistant (University of Louisiana at Lafayette)
Provided technical instruction and hands-on training to 10–20 students per semester in petrophysics and horizontal well design, reinforcing core principles through real-world datasets and case-based problem solving.
Led laboratory sessions covering core flooding, sand sieve analysis, fluid density measurement, flashpoint testing, rheometry, spectrophotometry, and separator bubble-point determination, ensuring safe, accurate operation of equipment and proper data collection protocols.
Guided students in interpreting production data and well log suites, including dynamometer card analysis for sucker-rod artificial lift systems, helping them diagnose pump efficiency, rod loading, and operational anomalies.
2021
TMSL Account Manager (University of Louisiana at Lafayette)
Travel, purchase documentation, and accounting
2019 – 2021
TMSL Lab Manager (University of Louisiana at Lafayette)
Managed daily operations of a core analysis lab supporting industry consortium members, ensuring accurate sample tracking, QA/QC, and timely reporting.
2018 – 2022
Graduate Research Assistant (University of Louisiana at Lafayette)
Conducted petrophysical and production-related research on Tuscaloosa Marine Shale and Green River Shale, including production decline analysis for clay-rich unconventional wells.
Developed data workflows in Excel (VBA) and JMP to analyze well performance trends, pressure responses, and imbibition dynamics—directly transferable to production reporting and forecasting.
