Brian Portwood is a professional land surveyor and historian of land rights law, providing advisory, consulting, and educational services to the land rights community, with the goal of fostering interdisciplinary professional collaboration. He was born and raised near Chicago Illinois, graduated from Lamson Business College in Scottsdale Arizona in 1983, and began his ongoing career as a land surveyor at that time. Over the ensuing 22 years he worked in the private sector in numerous states from coast to coast, on both privately funded and publicly funded projects of virtually every kind, and is now licensed in several western states.
