I am an accomplished mechanical engineer and management consultant driving energy sector innovation. With technical expertise, an MBA, and a Professional Engineering license, I bring valuable insights. With experience in oilfield services, designing cutting-edge technology, I push energy industry boundaries. Excited about transformative technologies like geothermal, energy storage, and carbon capture, I integrate solutions for a sustainable future. Let's connect to shape the future of energy together.
As an Associate at McKinsey & Company, I have driven growth opportunities and productivity improvements across advanced industries, consumer goods, basic materials, and more. I work closely with clients to deliver innovative solutions, enhance operational efficiency, and achieve sustainable impact.
- Optimized and integrated multiple subsystems to design, build, and test a unique, alternative-drilling technology - Incorporated myriad technologies into logging-while-drilling (LWD) collars such as chemical nuclear sources, gamma-ray scintillators, neutron detectors, electrical generators & associated technologies, acoustic transducers, PCBAs, and more. - Ruggedized LWD systems to withstand tremendous pressures, temperatures, torques, weight-on-bit (WOB), bending, vibrations, and shocks while focusing on costs, maintenance, and operations - Substituted expensive and time-consuming mechanical tests with high-fidelity simulations to reduce R&D costs and project timelines - Collaborated with internal and external, remote, virtual teams across continents and time zones
- Originated 4 ¾ inch diameter SpecStar Spectral Gamma Ray logging-while-drilling (LWD) instrument, tested first prototype downhole within 10 months, and commercialized technology a year later growing revenue through a new service offering - Designed and tested prototypes for 4 ¾ inch and 6 ¾ inch diameter LithoStar (next-generation nuclear "triple combo" LWD instruments) and 8 inch BaseStar with improved specifications and significantly reduced capex and opex relative to legacy technology - Led dozens of design reviews and reports for chief engineers, physicists, manufacturing leaders, supply chain managers, product managers, and business development managers to present novel technologies, strategies, and analyses - Produced multiple patent disclosures to solidify Halliburton's dominance of emerging technology in drilling market
