Transportation Systems Design (TSD) Rodman/Instrument Operator 07/01/2006 – 10/01/2007
Here I learned the value of a working as a team in the real world, and
not just as I had before during Football. I also learned to collect data in
the field and operated many different data collectors and total
stations. Leica, Topcon, Trimble, Sokkia, Husky, TDS are some of the
brands of equipment that I learned while here with the company. I
learned how to chain break lines and topo shots as a rodman, which
really helped in the data collector learning process as it helped me
understand what the party chief was locating with the rod. While
operating the gun and learning survey practices and collecting data, I
began to understand the importance of communication between the
field and office personnel.

Surveyor I/Instrument Operator
10/01/2007 –10/12/2008
Here I was responsible for operating the gun and learned the inner
workings of survey-grade GPS very well. Cutting line was very prevalent
with this company as we did a lot of new road design work. This
required a lot of cross-country walking through some rough terrain but
put me through some, as my dad would say, “builds character”,
moments.
2008- 2014
Worked in non- survey related fields of work. I can provide if needed.
