To whom it may concern,

I have recently finished a bachelor’s degree in Geophysics at the Missouri University of Science and Technology (Missouri S&T) in Rolla, Missouri. I have studied a wide variety of course work in geoscience that has given me the opportunity to explore several different sub disciplines pertaining to geology and geophysics. My primary goal is to obtain a position in the oil and gas industry as an exploration geophysicist, structural geologist, or a petrophysicist.

Some of my skills that may be of interest to you, include:

• Participation in Geologic and Geological Engineering Field Courses
• Undergraduate Research
• Well logging interpretation experience
• Exposure to various aspects of Geophysical data acquisition and processing


I have enclosed a copy of my resume, which more fully details my qualifications as well as my academic background. Please contact me at jab9k3@mst.edu or (262)-325-3911 for further discussion. I look forward to hearing from you. Have a good week.


Sincerely,

Jeff Bender
