Summary

As an experienced energy industry geologist, I am enthusiastic about returning to professional life following a rewarding period as a dedicated stay-at-home mom to four, including one with special needs. This time at home, especially adapting to having a child with significant needs, has honed my skills in time management, scheduling, and interpersonal relationships as I have worked with a multi-disciplinary team to ensure the best care for my daughter. I bring to the workforce the things I have learned and a solid foundation of technical expertise, a commitment to excellence, and a passion for geology. I am well-prepared to contribute my skills and knowledge to drive impactful results for my future team and organization.
