What I'm looking for

I seek roles applying geomatics, drone mapping and bathymetry skills on infrastructure or coastal projects with collaborative teams, technical growth, and clear project impact.

I am a results-driven Geomatic Engineer with seven years' experience in GIS, drone mapping, survey engineering and bathymetry, graduating with First Class honors in Geomatic Engineering. I combine field survey expertise (RTK GNSS, total station, echo-sounding), photogrammetric workflows, and geospatial analysis to deliver accurate mapping, DEM/DSM generation, and bathymetric datasets for infrastructure and coastal projects.

I have led survey teams on coastal defense and construction projects, produced technical reports, and supported academic instruction as a teaching assistant. I am adept with ArcGIS, QGIS, Metashape, AutoCAD Civil 3D, Carlson, HyPack (amateur), and MS Office, and I seek to apply my technical and project-management skills to innovate in geomatics and bathymetry applications.
