Soon after beginning his career here, he and a few others on his team decided to take advantage of
WGI's tuition reimbursement program and joined a Geospatial apprenticeship program at a local college, where he received several professional certifications while furthering his passion for the geospatial field through a hands-on experience at WGI.
Christian walked us through what
"a day in the life" looks like for him here at WGI, and was quick to boast about all the innovative pieces of equipment and technologies he and the Geospatial team have had the opportunity to utilize while working on various projects.

We also talked about what he likes to do in his spare time and discovered he is an avid long-distance runner, having completed multiple ultramarathons in the United States and several other countries.
We also learned how following the death of a close friend, he leveraged his love for running and desire to honor her memory by organizing an annual charity event called the
JW Corbett 50 Mile Race. This event, which is near and dear to Christian's heart, raises money for underprivileged schools in South America to provide students with musical instruments.
