About

I come from a multidisciplinary background with over 25years experience in CAD draughting/ drafting and a solutionist attitude. I have worked alongside many Engineers and Architects, local and international on various projects, in the consulting engineering services and mining environment throughout my career. The past couple of years I've been involved in R&D, manufacturing and prototyping.
