Background

Nothing Beats Field Work

Nothing Beats Field Work

Nothing Beats Field Work

 I feel most at home in the field, on the side of some remote hill or mountain side. I have over a decade of experience working in remote environments on small teams in a wide variety of industries. 


I spent four years in the army, completing two combat tours in iraq as a combat engineer. Since then I have worked as a hazmat responder, drone operator, photographer, engineering technician, and geologist. 



As a geologist

 Working in so many field based industries, I have lived and breathed safety, jobsite awareness, various equipment operation, keeping a good attitude during stressful times, and all the nuances of travel work.


During my time as a geologist, I have been part of a wide variety of projects. I mostly work in the mineral exploration and geotechnical fields, but I also have experience in production as a mine geologist.
