Hello!

I am a geospatial professional with a background in biology and 4+ years' experience working in the GIS industry. In my current role, I am the primary GIS specialist on staff at a small environmental consulting firm. I am responsible for managing all GIS-related aspects of our projects, from kickoff to final deliverables. Typical reports include wetland and waters of the U.S. (WOTUS) delineations, threatened and endangered (T&E) species assessments, Phase I ESAs, cultural resources desktop reviews, and archaeological surveys. During my time in this role, I have standardized GIS workflows and developed custom tools in ModelBuilder to expedite routine tasks. I am skilled in utilizing data from online sources such as FEMA, USGS, and and USFWS, as well as GPS data collected in the field, to prepare high-quality figures for environmental assessments and regulatory submittals. I maintain a high level of organization in all my work and am regularly balancing the needs of multiple projects at once. 

I love working in the GIS field and am excited to continue learning and developing my skills!

My GIS Portfolio contains a collection of the GIS projects I produced during my certificate program, including examples of spatial analysis, cartography, and web maps. I am comfortable working with both ArcGIS and QGIS desktop software, as well as with many of the web mapping tools available on ArcGIS Online.
