STRENGTHS I have had conducted mineral exploration for precious and base metals in Canada, USA, Australia, Serbia, and Afghanistan. I am experienced at conducting mineral exploration in post- mineral cover including glacially covered terrain and areas subject to deep weathering. I am familiar and comfortable operating in rugged alpine terrain, arctic tundra, temperate forests, and in desert environments. I have experience in community relations with local communities affected by exploration activities.

I use a multidisciplinary approach to mineral exploration and geological problem solving. I believe in developing exploration programs based upon understanding the fundamental geological controls, events, and processes of ore formation. Then applying appropriate conventional and innovative exploration tools to detect characteristics of those deposits in their given geomorphological environments.

EMPLOYMENT HISTORY 2017-Present EQUITY EXPLORATION CONSULTANTS LTD., Vancouver, British Columbia Senior Project Geologist. I have worked on early to advanced stage mineral exploration projects in British Columbia and Ontario in Canada, and Herat Region of Afghanistan. Many of the projects target porphyry-style copper-gold or orogenic gold mineralization.

2011-Present NORTH SHORE MOUNTAIN BIKE ASSOCIATION, North Vancouver, British Columbia Trail builder. I help the NSMBA build and maintain a network of mountain bike specific and multi- use trails on the of Vancouver.
