Summary

I have over 12 years of experience working in various field and office-based roles in the Oil & Gas industry, including over 7 years at Origin Energy. I started my career working on offshore rigs as a Field Engineer for Schlumberger which has allowed me to gain a tremendous amount of exposure to rig operations and site safety management. At Origin Energy, I worked in various teams from Drilling, Completions & Workover to Production currently. Besides my day-to-day responsibilities as a Senior Production Engineer, I have focused on three key areas – well integrity, rod pump technology and production uplift projects. I am passionate about driving continuous improvements and looking for optimization opportunities. I enjoy coaching other Production Engineers and promoting a culture of continuous learning, accountability and innovation.
