Why become a geologist?

Published
American Association of Petroleum Geologists (AAPG)

I love my job. Not just the position of the Web Producer at AAPG, but the whole graphic/web/video/design/development aspect of my job. WHY? BECAUSE I love creating stuff from scratch, love figuring out the best way to make the project work, love rapid transformation of ideas into usable tools. But that’s me.

What do you love to do?

SPECIFICALLY, why are you studying to become a geologist? What makes you go through all that school?

And for those of you already working as geologists, what are the most favorite aspects of your career?

In this batch of video interviews, available both on AAPG’s Facebook page and YouTube Channel, AAPG members share their favorite things about their jobs as well as being a member of AAPG.

P.S. More videos are coming later this week – stay tuned!
