Resume Michael Angell Principal Structural Geologist

PROFESSIONAL HISTORY Neo Geologic Consulting, Principal Structural Geologist / President 2015 to Present Fugro Consultants, Principal Geologist 2011 to 2015 William Lettis & Associates, Senior Geologist 2003 to 2011 AOA Geophysics, Principal Geologist, 2002 to 2003 Geomatrix Consultants, Staff Geologist to Senior Geologist, 1989 to 2002

EDUCATION M.Sc., D.I.C., Structural Geology and Rock Mechanics, Imperial College, London, UK, 1987 B.A., Earth Sciences, University of California, Santa Cruz, CA, 1985

EXPERIENCE Mr. Angell is a structural geologist with over 25 years of experience in geologic hazards assessment. His area of expertise is structural analysis of faulting and deformation mechanisms. These analyses are combined with project site stratigraphy, geomorphology and regional tectonic framework to characterize the evolution and current conditions of geohazard features and their environment. Mr. Angell has been responsible for the development, design, implementation and completion of deterministic and probabilistic geohazard assessment programs of all scales, from detailed site investigations to regional feasibility studies. The core activities of Mr. Angell’s experience include:

• Integrating multiple datasets to characterize neotectonic elements and deformation processes for evaluating the location, origin, magnitude, and recurrence of possible future activity;

• Detailed mapping and interpretation to understand geologic structures in terms of kinematic patterns, driving forces, and relationships to other geologic processes;

• Fault displacement hazard assessment and seismic source characterization; and • Construction of viable geologic models critical for understanding the origin, evolution, and potential

future behavior of geohazards. PROJECTS
