What I'm looking for

I seek GIS roles supporting coastal resilience, oceans, and infrastructure where I can apply spatial statistics, cartography, and data storytelling to produce actionable insights and support stakeholder decision-making.

I am a Marine Corps combat veteran turned GIS-focused data scientist pursuing a BS in Geographic Information Science and Cartography at Arizona State University with a 3.9+ GPA. I convert messy spatial data into clear 2D and 3D maps, StoryMaps, and briefings for technical and nontechnical audiences, applying geostatistics, spatial models, and cartographic design to inform coastal resilience, oceans, and infrastructure decision-making.

My work spans oyster habitat suitability mapping, urban geodesign scenarios, ozone monitoring analysis, and housing modeling, supplemented by practical experience building small ML projects and communicating results to stakeholders. I bring disciplined project delivery, field data collection experience, and a focus on actionable spatial insights to support resilient coastal and infrastructure planning.
