Geophysicist specializing in seismic interpretation and basin scale tectonic analysis. Holds PhD from Princeton University and has over 30 years experience in exploration consulting and leading geophysical studies, primarily in North Andean and Caribbean basins. Over 80 publications cover seismic structural interpretation in foreland basins, petroleum geology, and potential field methods. The work, including 2D and 3D seismic interpretation, multi-attribute analysis for fault and fracture detection, and structural control on the evolution of petroleum systems, has led to better understanding of onshore and offshore plays in fold belts. Former students hold leading positions in petroleum exploration and academic research.
