About

I invented a technology for imaging hydraulic fractures from microseismic data, plus a set of geophysical inversion algorithms around it, and co-founded Universal Seismic to bring them to market. Bootstrapped since 2018, we have delivered 50+ projects for most major US operators. Our Fracture Imaging remains the only commercial technology of its kind, validated in field studies published with our clients.

I lead a small team and stay hands-on across the whole business: sales, pricing, client delivery, and the production code. Before that, I built cloud infrastructure that streams seismic data from the field and runs geophysical inversions in real time.

Computational physicist, PhD, 60+ publications. Over 25 years I have developed new methods for geophysical problems and turned them into commercial products.

Core Expertise

  • Turning research into products customers pay for
  • Inverse problems, physical modelling and signal processing
  • Implementing new methods as high-performance software (C++, Python)
  • Real-time data processing on cloud infrastructure
  • Microseismic monitoring, fracture imaging and induced seismicity risk

I advise oil & gas and geothermal companies on microseismic monitoring, induced seismicity risk and fracture diagnostics. Open to founding or joining ventures, senior technical roles, and advisory work where physics and numerics are the core of the product.
