Research interests
I joined the University of Bristol in October 2020 as a Post-Doctoral Research Associate on Induced Seismicity, to work with Prof. James Verdon and the Bristol University Microseismicity ProjectS (BUMPS) group. Before that, I worked with the Microseismic Industry Consortium from 2016 to 2020, first as a PhD student in Geophysics at the University of Calgary, Canada, and then as a Post-Doctoral Research Associate at the same University. My research has focused on developing robust methods and algorithms for passive seismic data processing and modelling applied to reservoir characterization, and hazard analysis of induced seismicity associated with the development of conventional and unconventional oil and gas, and geothermal reservoirs.
