With a varied operational background in farming, mining and port operations, I have extensive experience in heavy equipment operation and training/assessing, as well as mine control and crew resource coordinator roles. 15+ years as an all-round mobile plant operator (dozers, loaders, graders, scrapers, and excavators/face shovels up to 800 tonne), including shiploaders has given me opportunities around Australia in Queensland's' coal mines and coal export ports, civil construction projects in Queensland and Victoria, and extensive experience in Western Australia's Iron Ore mines. Outside of the resources industry I am an aspiring aviator, with CPL MEIR MPPC RU and GTE qualifications, flying single pilot IFR charter and private ops in C208 and PA34 aircraft across Queensland. I also fly recreationally in RAAus registered aircraft and have some experience in ferrying aircraft throughout Australia.
