Short Biography
Sam has over five years’ postdoctoral experience as a geologist. His PhD research focused on the petrography and diagenesis of carbonate and siliciclastic sedimentary rocks. After finishing his PhD, Sam spent three years working as a sedimentologist in the petroleum industry, developing depositional, diagenetic and sequence stratigraphic models. Much of his work involved determining the controls on the porosity and permeability of sedimentary rocks.
In 2006/07 Sam did an MSc in Environmental Hydrogeology. Since joining JBA in October 2007 he has worked on a variety of hydrogeological projects, including groundwater resource studies, drainage/wetlands projects, contaminated land risk assessments and the hydrogeological aspects of Environmental Impact Assessments. Sam has also carried out condition assessments on geological Sites of Special Scientific Interest.
