Summary

I am a Geologist with 5+ years in the Oil and Gas industry. I was trained in both the Mining and Energy sectors in PNG's National Oil Company (Kumul Petroleum Holdings Ltd) and Ok Tedi Mining Ltd. respectively. My passion and curiosity about Earth's dynamics have guided me onto the path of seismology where I intend to professionally grow as a geophysicist. I grew up in a very seismically active region and survived numerous volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and a tsunami hence I am currently doing seismological research work at the University of Hawaii in pursuit of my second Masters in Earth and Planetary Sciences.
