GIS-focused data scientist and Marine Corps veteran specializing in coastal resilience analytics.
What I'm looking for
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.
