New Land Surveyors Christopher Beaugrand, BCLS# 1022 Chris was commissioned on November 17, 2020 in Burnaby, by Chris Cryderman. Born in Eldorado, AK, Chris traveled around the world growing up. He has lived in Calgary and Fort McMurray since moving to Canada in 1998. Growing up, Chris spent a lot of time camping and on ATV’s. While attending university he was looking to pursue a career that would allow him to work outside in an environment that was different every day. Surveying seemed to fit that.
Chris would like to thank his new colleagues for answering all his questions and providing advice and clarity on the finer points of land surveying in BC. Also, he would like to thank his wife Elizabeth for her support through the move and at home while he was studying. Cooking, being outdoors, overlanding, camping, hiking, and skiing are Chris’ interests outside of work.

Haemee was drawn to land surveying as she sees it as an essential service to society that will hold value over time. She was also fascinated by century-old survey plans that are still relevant today.
Thanks to all of Haemee’s family who have supported her through this long journey. She is grateful to everyone at Bennett Land Surveying, especially Neil Bennett, Pat Korabek, Mike Shaw, Mike Seitz, John Franko, Tyson Cotnam and Rob Adriaensen for being incredible mentors and Trevor Hutchins for being a supportive study mate. Haemee is currently learning Seoye (Korean calligraphy) and the ukulele; she has tried and is interested in many different activities and although she might not excel at them all, she loves the process of learning new things.
