About Michael

Michael E. Reed
Columbia & Rice University Alum | Former ExxonMobil Geologist | Expert in Climate, Business, and Geoscience

I bridge the gap between complex technical data and strategic decision-making. With over a decade of experience in the Energy industry and an academic foundation from Columbia Climate School and Rice University (MBA & MS), I offer more than just tutoring, I offer professional mentorship.

Throughout my career as a Consulting Geologist and Operations Engineer, I have managed multi-million dollar projects, quantified subsurface risk for exploration targets, and communicated technical insights to senior stakeholders. Whether you are a university student struggling with Geoscience, a professional looking to master Data Visualization, or an aspiring leader navigating the Climate Business nexus, I provide practical application and industry context that textbooks often miss.

About the lesson

I believe that learning is most effective when it is applied. My sessions are structured to mirror professional consulting engagements, ensuring you walk away with actionable skills.
We don’t just study theory, we will look at real world cases, datasets and scenarios, much like I did during my time in the energy sector.

Coming from a dual background in Business and Science, I teach my students how to translate technical findings into compelling narratives for stakeholders or examiners. We start with the final objective (a project, a model, or an exam) and work backward to understand the foundational concepts.

My teaching approach is built on the philosophy that technical knowledge is only as valuable as your ability to apply it. Whether we are diving into subsurface geophysics or climate-driven financial modeling, I move beyond rote memorization to help you develop the "Professional Intuition" required in elite academic and corporate environments.

I speak the languages of Science, Business, and Policy simultaneously. With an Ivy League education in Climate and Society, an MBA, and a Master of Science in Geophysics, I provide a 360-degree view of the energy and environmental sectors.

Perfect for:

Undergraduate & Graduate Students in Geology, Geophysics, or Environmental Science.

MBA Candidates looking to master quantitative subjects, data analytics or strategy.

Climate Professionals looking to understand the intersection of climate risk and business operations.

Early-Career Engineers/Geoscientists transitioning into project management or technical leadership roles.
