Profile

Rod Colwell

Senior Technologist
Dip.Arch.Tech.
Born and raised in a small town in Southern Ontario I used to annoy the local builders with questions on how to build houses. When I started my first drafting class in High School, I was hooked and told my family that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. I have a keen interest in both history and military aircrafts so much as I have been building plastic aircraft models since my teenage years. My passion for breaking down and sorting details to make things work led me to be a construction document specialist. I strongly believe that everyone has something to bring to the table and any idea should not be easily dismissed. Over thirty years of experience working in Architectural firms with different methods of delivery and various building types provide a comprehensive approach to project coordination and quality assurance / quality control.
