Geophysicist

About our Client

Experienced Geophysicist with over 15 years of expertise in earthquake data processing, seismic analysis, and geophysical research. Currently serving at the National Earthquake Information Center as a Geophysicist, where I utilize advanced software and Python scripting to process real-time earthquake data, ensuring quality control and catalog completeness. My role involves working with seismic data, conducting routine assessments of station quality, and collaborating with media and colleagues to verify event information. I have a strong background in seismic analysis tools, including Antelope and MATLAB, and am skilled in using relational databases to manage large datasets. With a proven track record of publishing research, presenting at national conferences, and training teams, I excel at delivering accurate and timely data to inform decision-making.

Achievements

Seismic Data Processing: Proficient in using specialized seismic analysis tools like Antelope and MATLAB, with hands-on experience in locating and determining source parameters for thousands of earthquakes from raw waveform data.

Python Programming: Strong working knowledge of Python, with hands-on experience in scripting tools to aid team operations and enhance data analysis processes.

Earthquake Data Quality Control: In-depth knowledge of earthquake data processing, quality control, and catalog management, with a successful track record in publishing real-time earthquake data and performing post-processing for quality and completeness.

Analytical & Problem-Solving Abilities: Strong analytical and problem-solving abilities, as evidenced by the effective analysis of seismic data and the identification of station calibration issues to ensure accurate results.

Leadership & Training: Experienced in mentoring and training new staff and students, fostering a collaborative learning environment to enhance team performance and analytical capabilities.
