STAFF SPOTLIGHT

Gus Carlson
Senior Staff Geologist

Department: Hydrogeology Department

AESI Staff since 2022

​

Gus joined AESI in July of 2022. Though he was hired into the Hydrogeology group, he spent his first summer “on-loan” to the Geotechnical department running around the Puget Sound working on various sites doing construction observation and geotechnical testing. Gus has since returned to the Hydrogeology department full time, where you can now find him either out in the field drilling hundreds of feet below surface or in the office drawing cross sections and interpreting his subsurface data.

 

Gus has always had an interest in geology, starting his own personal rock collection at the age of 6. He knew he wanted to pursue a career in the sciences, originally planning to study chemistry, but once he shifted his focus to geology, he realized all the things he appreciated about the sciences were the great things about geology – it was practical, tactile, and ubiquitous.

 

These days, most of Gus’ time is spent working on one of our large-scale development projects in southern King County. This project has helped Gus hone his in-field correlation, allowing him to observe field conditions, make connections to the regional geology, and build a deeper understanding of how site-specific observations fit into the bigger picture. Gus appreciates the variety that this project allows, particularly the exposure to a wide range of drilling methods and technical approaches. He looks forward to using what he’s learned to streamline processes and develop SOPs that help support consistency throughout projects, tasks, and the company.

 

Outside of work, Gus is an avid biker. This summer, he plans to take advantage of the nice weather and visit all 450+ parks in Seattle. When not checking places off his bike bucket list, you can find him playing Dungeons and Dragons with friends.
