Skills
Surveying has given me a sound understanding of the
engineering and construction industry and all
applications and processes involved. Professionalism,
working proficiently, promptly and to specific
standards is my utmost priority whether it part of a
survey team, alone, in the office, out in the field or
engaging with clients.

for every part of the construction phase during the
project. This included my first bridge, which was a 60m
single span overpass from start to finish. I also worked
on other features such as reinforced earth batters
using soil nails, retaining walls with SMSE connections,
drill and blasting for rock removal and sub-strata
mapping.
