  • Professional Experience:

  • With extensive experience in teaching, community service, and research, I have built a strong foundation in geophysics, Working in various geophysical methods. My expertise spans across multiple disciplines, including Electromagnetic Geophysics, DC Resistivity Method, Borehole Geophysics, Seismic Refraction, Potential Fields, and Radiometric Geophysics.

  • Teaching Experience

  • I have been actively involved in educating and mentoring students in geophysical principles and applications. My teaching experience covers fundamental and applied geophysical methods, field data acquisition, and interpretation techniques. Through my academic engagement, I have contributed to shaping the next generation of geophysicists by integrating theoretical knowledge with practical field experience.

  • Community Service

  • Beyond academia, I have participated in community-based projects where geophysical methods were applied to solve real-world problems. This includes groundwater exploration using DC resistivity methods, and environmental assessments with radiometric geophysics. These projects have not only contributed to scientific advancements but also supported local communities in resource management and environmental sustainability.

  • Research Experience

  • My research experience is centred around applying geophysical techniques to subsurface investigations. I have produced significant outputs in:

    1. Electromagnetic Geophysics: Conducting surveys for subsurface hydrogeological structures mapping
    2. DC Resistivity Method: Utilizing electrical resistivity for groundwater exploration, environmental studies, and engineering applications.
    3. Borehole Geophysics: interpreting downhole data to enhance subsurface characterization.
    4. Seismic Refraction: Analysing subsurface velocity structures for engineering, and geotechnical applications.
    5. Potential Fields: Gravity and magnetic surveys for regional geological studies and resource exploration.
    6. Radiometric Geophysics: Evaluating natural radiation levels for radioactive elements and environmental monitoring.

  • Through my extensive fieldwork, data processing, and interpretation, I have contributed to advancing geophysical methodologies and their practical applications. My work has resulted in tangible outputs in each of these methods, further enhancing the understanding of subsurface conditions in various geological settings.
