I have a Masters in GIS/Water Resources from Texas State University and a Bachelors in Geography/Natural Resource Management from UT Austin. I have been working in GIS mapping and analysis for about 11 years. My particular areas of expertise include data management, spatial analysis and conservation- and natural resource-based activities. I am passionate about holistic watershed management and using GIS as a communication tool to promote science-based decision-making and encourage public engagement and stewardship. My previous work experience includes conservation, watershed assessment, environmental consulting GIS and flood mapping.
