About Josh Woods
Hey there, I’m Josh! I graduated from The University of Texas at Austin in May 2013 with a BS in Petroleum Engineering. Throughout my career, I have provided production, facilities, and operations engineering support for horizontal well developments in the Permian Basin (Delaware and Midland). My boots-on-the-ground foundation and training is coupled with technical, leadership, and communication skills that have been fine-tuned through the management and execution of a multitude of production and facilities projects.In my free time, I enjoy sports, travel, snowboarding, mountain biking, hiking, personal finance/investing, live music, and spending time with my wife, daughters, and golden doodle!
