About
I'm a UAS (drone) specialist with hands-on experience across two high-stakes industries, energy and agriculture. In addition, I have a background in geospatial research.
At Occidental Petroleum, I performed remote flight operations over critical infrastructure in the Permian Basin under a BVLOS waiver, programming and executing missions for mapping and inspection. I was able to log 25+ hours of combined mission experience on DJI Dock 2 and M3TD hardware and subsequently presented findings directly to leadership and key stakeholders.
I spent a summer at Beck's Hybrids conducting agricultural drone research, accumulating 35+ flight hours on the DJI M350 and M3M using RGB, multispectral, and LiDAR sensors.
I've also worked as a GIS researcher at Purdue University, where I sharpened my spatial analysis and data attribution skills by georeferencing and digitizing historical military maps to support academic analysis of WWII troop movements.
What drives me is solving real problems with emerging technology. Actively pursuing opportunities in UAS operations, commercial/regulatory compliance, geospatial analysis, and remote sensing across any industry.
