A versatile and experienced professional with a strong background in GIS  programming, and database management. My expertise in land and engineering surveying, coupled with my proficiency in  software development, allows me to provide innovative solutions that go beyond meeting business needs and advance operations.

What sets me apart is my ability to work collaboratively with others, to ensure effective and efficient project delivery. 

I am inquisitive and passionate; eager to prove myself and constantly learning new skills.

I have experience in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and software development. I worked as a GIS analyst for the Zimbabwe Electricity Transmission and Distribution Company (ZETDC), where I used GIS software to collect and analyze spatial data related to the company's engineering projects. My work at ZETDC gave me valuable experience working in an engineering context, where I collaborated with engineers and other professionals to support the development and maintenance of the power grid.

In addition to my work at ZETDC, I have also worked as a software developer for a technology company, where I developed software applications using various programming languages and platforms. I have experience working on projects that involved data analysis, database management, and web development.

Overall, my experience in GIS and software development has helped me develop strong technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and attention to detail. I am comfortable working on complex projects and collaborating with teams to deliver high-quality solutions.

A degree in surveying and geomatics is all about learning how to accurately measure and map the physical world using specialized equipment and software. Throughout my studies, I learned how to collect, analyze, and present data related to land and water resources, engineering and construction projects, and other applications.

My coursework included a range of subjects, such as mathematics, physics, geology, geography, and computer science. I also received hands-on training in surveying techniques, such as GPS, total stations, and laser scanning. Additionally, I learned about legal and ethical issues related to land ownership and use, which is important in the surveying and geomatics industry.

After completing my degree, I was equipped with the skills and knowledge needed to pursue a career in a variety of fields, including land surveying, mapping, remote sensing, construction, engineering, and environmental management. Many of these industries are in high demand of professionals with surveying and geomatics skills. I could also work for government agencies, private companies, or as an independent consultant. Overall, a degree in surveying and geomatics provided me with a strong foundation in data collection, analysis, and interpretation, which is essential in many industries.
