Summary

Over the past four years I have had the pleasure of working as a Plumbing and Drainage Inspector in Livingstone. I thoroughly enjoy keeping up to date with the latest industry news to ensure Livingstone has the safest, most reliable plumbing and drainage systems in Queensland. I constantly liaise with stakeholders on issues regarding plumbing applications, current codes and practices and installation compliance. I've enjoyed expanding my knowledge base around all aspects of plumbing and look forward testing my skills and challenging myself to lead an experienced plumbing inspectorate into the ever changing and exciting future of plumbing.
