I had the opportunity to work at Aurecon, where my primary responsibility was to develop innovative solutions that leveraged real-time visualization, web-based WebGL projects, custom tools, and integrations with Power BI.

Notably, I spearheaded the creation of a real-time tool designed for design review and immersive multimedia experiences incorporating BIM design data from various architectural firms collaborating on a project with the Queensland Government.

As the lead developer, I contributed to the development of 3D interactive real-time visualization tools for several key projects, including:

Inland Rail Euroa | Victoria (2021–2022): Real-time visualization for enhanced project presentations.

Victorian Rail Infrastructure, Suburban Rail Loop | AJM (2021–2022): Interactive visualization tools for efficient project analysis.

Transport for New South Wales, North Sydney Wharf Upgrade (2022–2023): Advanced real-time visualization to support design and planning.

Sunshine Coast Council, Caloundra Transport Corridor Upgrade (2023): Real-time visualization for seamless project communication and stakeholder engagement.
