Craig is an accomplished geoscientist and engineer known for bridging gaps between diverse disciplines within applied earth science. His expertise spans geophysics, geotechnical engineering, hydrogeology, and machine learning, underpinned by a strong foundation in applied mathematics and engineering design. His diverse domain knowledge, combined with a problem-solving mindset and proficiency in Python make Craig highly adaptable, capable of serving as both an expert consultant solving novel problems and a software developer creating tools to empower others. As co-founder and VP of Technology at EMerald Geomodelling, Craig has spearheaded the development of advanced data processing and modelling tools, including machine learning workflows, 3D visualization, and geospatial analysis. His contributions are informed by hands-on experience in over 15 large-scale airborne EM site investigations across multiple countries and industries. In most cases, he led the production of interpreted geological models using EMerald’s custom software and communicated results to clients in multiple languages. Craig’s talents as a researcher, communicator, and innovator have been recognized by numerous agencies, universities, and industry societies, including the National Science and Engineering Research Council of Canada. His expertise is further demonstrated by his many publications, which include six peer-reviewed journal articles, three scientific book chapters, and dozens of articles presented at international conferences. He has also coordinated technical proposals and engaged in research funded by the EU and Norwegian Research Council.
Developing machine learning algorithms to integrate geotechnical and geophysical data to cut ground investigation costs. EMerald Geomodelling reduces geological risk by providing seamless ground conditions early in infrastructure projects. I am providing the missing link between complicated geophysical data and deliverables that are relevant for infrastructure project owners and consultants.
Specialist in engineering applications of geophysics. Major activities have included: -- Enhancing site-investigations of large infrastructures projects by way of developing machine learning algorithms for interpreting airborne geophysics and geotechnical data. -- Establishing data processing routines for a new borehole logging group and performing occasional field investigations -- Managing geophysical spatial data -- Collecting and processing ground geophysics data (primarily electrical resistivity tomography)
Graduate TA for two courses: GLGY353 - Surficial Systems and Change in Winter 2015 SCIE311 - Writing and Reviewing Scientific Reports in Winter and Fall 2016
-- Worked two consecutive summers: May to August 2013, and May to September 2014 -- 300+ hours of resistivity field survey experience, with related data processing experience -- Led one research project on integrating airborne EM data with geotechnical data, and contributed to multiple other geophysics research and development projects related to geophysical data visualization and interpretation -- Frequently translated documents from Norwegian to English and edited English-language reports and grant proposals for non-native speakers.
-- Ran weekly one-hour help sessions for MTHE272, an introductory numerical methods course with extensive use of Matlab -- Assisted in designing hydrogeology-themed course project alternative for geological engineering students in the course
