Alex graduated from QUT in 2003 and started work at Terramap Surveys as a field Surveyor. His motivation to gain knowledge and experience meant that he was quickly promoted to an office-based role where he could best utilise his leadership skills. In 2007 Alex became a shareholder and director of Terramap. As survey manager, Alex thrived on processing up to 30 jobs a day for the 10 Terramap Field crews by preparing calculations, site instructions, and maintaining good communication between all parties and brings with him a wealth of experience of over 16 years, including 7 years field experience on many construction, mapping and consulting projects.

Alex also enjoys researching and applying latest technologies that help improve workflow and abilities of office and field-based survey staff, from 3D modelling and volume reporting, to aerial photogrammetric surveys and land-based laser scanning, and traditional GNSS and Robotic Total station surveys.
