Working within the Water and Sewerage industry I have undertaken various roles across the full lifecycle of Water and Sewerage projects, including Infrastructure Planning, Detailed Design, Project Management, Construction Management, and Superintendency. This broad range of experience within the industry has enabled me to provide a more holistic approach to projects with a balance of well-developed technical knowledge and understanding of constructability considerations.Previously as an Infrastructure Planning Engineer and continuing with my role at AECOM, I have been responsible for the creation and update of various water network modelling software packages, including H2OMap, Infoworks, EPANET2, EPA SWMM, SewerGEMS, WaterGEMS, and MUSIC, along with other software including ArcMap, and AutoCAD.Within AECOM I have been the Technical Lead of a large number of projects across the Water and Sewer project portfolio, including Paterson 2 Water Mains (GRC), Thangool Booster Pump Station (BSC), Emerald Lifeline Implementation (CHRC), Glenlyon Road Water and Gravity Sewer Service Relocations (GRC), A01 / S01 Rising Mains (GRC), and the Australia Singapore Military Training Initiative - Rockhampton as lead Design Engineer. As Superintendent or Superintendents Representative he has helped deliver the Yeppoon Sewage Treatment Plant (LSC), Agnes Water Trunk Water Main Stage 3 (GRC), and Emerald Water Supply Upgrades (CHRC).I have designed a number of hydraulically controlled structures and treatment facilities including wastewater treatment plant distribution chambers / inlets, overflow chambers, sedimentation basins, and overland flow civil works. These projects have been delivered with a focus on ensuring they’re practical and meet environmental authority requirements.More recently I have undertaken Project Management roles on the Water Infrastructure teams multi-disciplinary design projects where I have developed ongoing relationships with local government clients.
