Biography

I am a Hydrologist in the Geophysics and Subsurface Analysis unit of the United States Geological Survey's Oklahoma-Texas Water Science Center, in Austin, Texas. I am a Project Chief on applied research studies that require proposal development, geophysical and hydrologic survey planning, instrumentation and data acquisition, data processing and analysis, and publication of airborne, waterborne, surface, and borehole hydrogeophysical data. The scopes of my projects entail geophysical and hydraulic characterization of aquifers, forward and inverse geophysical and groundwater-flow modeling, geophysical and hydrologic studies of surface-water and ground water exchanges, and development of new geophysical surveying and processing methods for hydrologic studies.
