Doria Kutrubes, M.Sc., President &
Senior Geophysicist

Ms. Kutrubes has nearly 40 years of experience in the applications of geophysical surveying and mapping (NAICS 541360, 541330 (geophysics only) to environmental, engineering, geotechnical, infrastructure, hydro-geological, and archaeological applications. Since 1984, she has performed investigations for locating and mapping underground storage tanks, utilities, hazardous waste and contaminant plumes, bedrock topography, concrete deterioration and other structural slab and pavement related applications, and archeological/ forensic studies at thousands of sites throughout New England, United States and internationally. In 1989 Ms. Kutrubes drafted the SOPs for GPR, and helped write the SOPs for EM, magnetic, resistivity, and other methods for the MADEP (formerly MA DEQE). She has served on two FHWA TRB SHRP II Initiatives, one in developing a toolbox approach for mapping concrete deterioration, and the other for mapping utilities (2009). Ms. Kutrubes received her M.Sc. in Geophysical Engineering, with a concentration in Hydrogeology, from the Colorado School of Mines and her B.Sc. in Geology from Bates College.

Cameron Russ, B.S.,

Vice President & Geophysicist

Cameron joined the RSI team in the spring of 2014, and since then has completed hundreds of Geophysical Surveying and Mapping projects for surveying and mapping of utilities (ASTM SUE LEVELS A, B, and C), thousands of borehole clearances prior to installation of environmental and geotechnical wells and borings, hundreds of void surveys, including those to assess slab integrity and structure using ultra-sonic methods, and dozens of surveys at historic cemeteries looking for unmarked graves. His strong GIS background has enabled RSI to push the boundaries of RSI’s deliverables, producing 3D utility, void, and bedrock elevation maps, superimposed onto our clients’ DEMs and AutoCADs. In 2019, because of his contributions to innovations at RSI, Cameron became a minority-share owner of RSI, and with it, assumed the position of Vice President and Geophysical Associate. Mr. Russ was instrumental in helping RSI to become one of the first companies to combine LiDAR and GPR data, so clients can envision their data above and below the ground. Cameron graduated Bates College with a B.S. in Geology and a concentration in Physics. His strong GIS background has aided in our interfacing between GPS and Geophysical Data, adding to the strength of the RSI team.

Mackenzie Kilpatrick, Geophysicist

Mackenzie joined the RSI team part-time in the spring of 2010, and full-time in June 2016. Mackenzie’s geophysical work has included projects covering utility surveying and mapping, infrastructure development and repair, environmental remediation and monitoring, structural engineering, archaeological investigation, and other geotechnical applications. Mr. Kilpatrick has worked on hundreds of utility surveying and mapping projects, including ASTM Levels A and B surveys and employed the full suite of geophysical methods. He has used GPR and EMI to clear thousands of borings for environmental and geotechnical applications. Mackenzie has a M.Sc. in Geography from the University of Nevada, Reno and a B.A. from the University of New Hampshire. Mackenzie has expertise in GIS, image analysis, spatial statistics, and has field experience ranging from New England to extensive field work in the remote deserts and mountains of California, Utah, and Nevada. Mackenzie is currently an Engineer Officer in the California Army National Guard.

Rick Lammey,
Geophysical Technician

Rick joined the RSI as a Geophysical Technician in June of 2013. Rick has a very strong technical background, having previously worked as a technician in the electronics and telecommunications industry for over 13 years. He is very knowledgeable in both the construction and environmental industries. Rick has collected field data for RSI throughout New England and the Northeast using GPR, EMI, EM-61 and GPS on hundreds of projects along with being highly competent of interpreting real-time GPR data in the field. For the past 12 years, Rick has been leading on providing DIG-SAFE services for the University of New Hampshire in Durham, NH and at General Electric in Lynn, Ma. for the last 6 years. He has assisted with on-call DIG-SAFE request from commercial and private clients throughout New England. Rick is a member of the NH Chapter of the AMC, The Maine Island Trail Association and is current Treasurer and Charter Member of the Conway Area Lions Club for the last 3 years. On top of being treasurer, he also has the marketing and webmaster roles for them. Rick has received the "NH Granite State Fellow" Award and the "LCI Melvin Jones" Award from the Lions Club.

Emily Torkelsen, Geophysicist

Emily joined the RSI team in the summer of 2022. Her work at RSI has included utility surveying and mapping throughout the Northeast. She has worked to survey voids, rebar, post-tension cables, and underground storage tanks both indoors and outdoors. Emily has also worked on multiple archaeological and forensic burial surveys, bedrock surveys, and she has assisted on many surveys to determine slab and foundation depth and integrity. She superimposes any client maps onto site aerial imagery with geophysical results for an easy-to-view deliverable. She also overlays GPR, EM, and EMI survey results on LiDAR and GPR data for a full 3D view of any site. Emily graduated from Bates College with a B.S. in Geology, minor in physics, and concentration in field studies. She has a strong background in GIS, geochemistry, hydrology, and wetlands.
