Julia has a degree in geophysics, but a passion for archaeology and joined Magnitude surveys after completing her studies. When she is not on the field, she is in the office developing creative software packages and analysing data. In her free time, she likes to draw, paint or play piano and, when she feels more adventurous, to go hiking or rock climbing.
Nick moved to the UK all the way from Australia in search of an opportunity to work with archaeological geophysics. He completed a BSc in Geophysics in 2013 followed by an Hons. by research degree in Marine Geophysics. After originally working with mineral exploration as a geophysics field assistant in outback Australia, Nick decided to combine geophysical experience with his interest in archaeology and ancient history, and become an assistant with Magnitude Surveys. During his spare time, Nick’s favourite activities include playing the guitar, exploring new places and appreciating nature.
Following his university studies, Ed spent four years working as an outdoor educator in New York.

In his spare time, Ed enjoys hiking, playing the piano, and rock climbing.
Freddie came to Magnitude Surveys in 2017, having previously worked as a land surveyor in the greater London area. Freddie looks forward to expanding and developing his mastery of both geophysics and archaeology in a professional environment.

Freddie is also a self-confessed land rover nut, and enjoys working on his own series-three, named ‘Daisy’.
Andrés has 10 years of experience in archaeology, first as a volunteer in excavation and post-excavation teams in Spain, Italy and France; and after completing his MA in Landscape Archaeology, as a professional excavator and geophysicist working for different archaeological companies in the UK. At the same time, he had the opportunity to become a Qualified Secondary Education Teacher. With all those skills and enthusiasm for learning new things in his backpack, Andrés has recently joined Magnitude Surveys. After cleaning the mud from his boots, Andrés also enjoys travelling, doing DIY, reading existentialist literature while listening to folk music, playing strategy games and discussing (in any language) about his favourite subjects: politics, history and food.
