I worked directly with design consultants and subcontractors to obtain the model data that we require to fulfil the Multiplex Digital Standard - maintaining integrity of model accuracy and data compliance at all times.

While working on a variety of iconic construction projects across Canada, I completed a comprehensive development program involving on-the-job rotations and structured learning that gave me the fundamental understanding of the way we run our business.The Graduate Program developed both my technical and behavioral skills with rotations in Safety, Environmental, Quality, Document Control, Site Supervision, Design, Services, Planning & Programming and Contracts Administration. I was exposed to various subject matter experts across all disciplines to enhance my learning and development across the business. This unique and competitive program gave me the framework I needed to launch my career in the AEC sector.
