Currently working as a Technical Service Technician for Autodesk & BricsCAD Developer / Reseller, Civil Survey Solutions, in Melbourne, Australia.

I have always had a passion for helping people learn new ways of doing things with their existing software and finding the best way to communicate it. I was a Survey Technician for 6 years and the most satisfying part of my role was resolving the problems that could occur during the course of a survey. From fieldwork to drafting, I enjoyed being included in all areas and then finding new ways to increase accuracy and decrease the amount of time needed per survey.

Working for Civil Survey Solutions, I get to enjoy both my drive to experiment with software and my desire to show others new methods, applying both to my work.
