• I have been working as an unconventional geologist for the past nine years, mostly as an operations geologist and GIS Analyst in the Permian Basin and Barnet Shale, as well as the Wilcox Formation and the Bakken Shale. Most recently I have been the director of Geosciences & Engineering for two oil & gas investment firms. As the Director of Geology & Engineering for TXO in Fort Worth, Texas and Sethi Capital Group, in Plano, Texas, it was my job to discover and develop new venture projects in the Permian Basin, the Bakken Shale, Fort Worth Basin, as well as plays in East Texas and North and South Louisiana. Prior to that I worked primarily as a Geological Consultant for mid cap and super operators in the role as a Reserves Geologist, producing GIS Maps, Contour Maps, Production Estimations and Leasing Analysis for new leasing activity preparing to permit to drill. • Since 2010, I have worked with Eikonal Energy, Inc. formerly known as Harding Energy Partners as a Developmental Geologist Prospecting, exploring, and developing unconventional wells in East Texas and Northern Louisiana with since 2010. I have been drilled, operated, geosteered, and mudlogged and wireline logged all the major plays in the United States • Prior to that I contracted for four months as an Operations Geologist for Shell Exploration & Production Company in Houston, Texas drilling in the Permian Basin and targeting Wolfcamp Formations. • Worked for six months as a prospect/explorations geologist in the Permian Basin for Blackwell Production, LLC. I wrote their prospectus to deliver to the investors, costed out every aspect of the well proposal to vendors. I assembled the AFE, Joint Venture Agreement, Calculated Reserves Estimations and decline curves to see production trends in the area, and then calculating the final economics of the well all the way to the Return On Investment that the investors needed to begin exploration on a new unconventional field on the Eastern Shelf of the Permian Basin. • Prior to that six month contract with BG Group of Houston, Texas, managing Haynesville Shale and Marcellus Shale Assets. • Daily duties include attending daily operations meetings, in charge of AFE's approvals with JV partner Exco Resources based on geological prognosis of the areas proposed, subsurface analysis of wells completed as well as offsets of OBO's based on past and current production curves.
