What I'm looking for

I seek a mid-level geospatial role where I can apply GIS and remote sensing to drive precision agriculture, deliver actionable spatial insights, and contribute to sustainability while mentoring others and growing technical expertise.

I am a result-oriented GIS professional with advanced training in Environmental Management and Soil Science, experienced in applying ArcGIS, QGIS, ERDAS, Pix4D and mobile data collection tools to support agricultural planning, land-use assessment, and environmental monitoring. I have led drone surveys, processed aerial imagery for farm mapping and yield estimation, maintained spatial databases, and produced clear maps and reports to inform decision-making.

I regularly provide capacity-building and technical support—training staff, NYSC members and students—and integrate GIS with other systems using Python, R and JavaScript where needed. I bring strong analytical skills, familiarity with GC/GC-MS methods, GHG and ESG frameworks, and a track record of delivering high-quality outputs under tight deadlines to help organizations implement precision agriculture and sustainability initiatives.
