ollin Hutcheson is the newest ASPRS Rising
Star. Collin is being sponsored by Merrick &
Company.
Collin is from New Baltimore, Michigan and moved to Denver
in 2012. He enrolled with Metropolitan State University and
graduated in 2015 with a BS in GIS. While enrolled in school,
Collin interned at Merrick &Company in his final semester, after
graduating he was offered a full-time position at the Merrick
office in Greenwood village working with their Geomatics team.
He started as GIS technician I and has since rapidly evolved in
to one of the teams leaders and has been promoted to GIS technician II. Collin
continues to take on new responsibilities as he continues to grow with in our
organization. During his time here at Merrick, Collin has shown a desire to be
challenged which has given him the opportunity to serve in many roles, ranging
from GIS projects, LiDAR projects, flight acquisition, project set up, auto filter,
hand filter, compilation and prepping final deliverables for Merrick’s end clients.
Collin has quickly become a go-to technical lead for our Geomatics team and thus
continues to be willing take on additional responsibilities.
Merrick & Company is an employee-owned engineering, architecture, survey-
ing, and geospatial firm, headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado. Sears
Merrick, a former engineering professor at the U.S. Military Academy, West
Point, founded our company in 1955 in Denver. Our initial focus on structural
engineering quickly expanded into power engineering, surveying and other types
of engineering across Colorado.
