Summary
When I started working as a surveyor for my Father I was just looking to get some work, but as I continued learning about surveying I grew an interest in surveying as a whole. I am confident in my skills as a surveyor and have no issues working independently and along side a co-worker.
I am confident using programs like Magnet and Survacad, as well as equipment from Trimble to Leica, and since working in Brisbane, I feel confident working in busy areas.
In general, I am a reliable worker who shows up to work on time and prepared for the day. I have no problem compromising with the hours I work or the jobs I'm given.
I'm an active person who plays recreational sports regularly. I'm happy to spend a day doing field work or office work.
I don't smoke or drink.
