Summary
Former Land Surveyor proudly bringing over 3.5 years' experience in the survey field. Offering great data assessment skills. I have some experience in construction staking, 3D laser scanning, topographic, alta, and boundary surveys. I've contracted for duke energy surveying substations and large span transmission lines. I'm someone that understands teamwork and safety are huge priorities in the field. Professionalism has also played a huge role in my life the past 10 months, as I've had the opportunity to serve as Code Enforcement/Building Inspector for the county I was born and raised in.
