What I'm looking for

I’m looking for entry-level GIS, mapping, or spatial data roles where I can grow professionally. I want to apply ArcGIS/QGIS and spatial analysis to support environmental monitoring, land use/land cover mapping, and infrastructure planning on real projects.

I’m a GIS & Remote Sensing professional trained in Cartography and GIS through a Diploma in Cartography and GIS and a Certificate in GIS & Remote Sensing from RCMRD. I focus on turning spatial data into clear, decision-ready maps and analyses.

I bring hands-on experience in spatial data processing, digitizing, and managing geospatial datasets. Through ArcGIS, QGIS, and Google Earth Engine, I’ve supported environmental analysis and produced thematic maps designed for reporting and decision-making.

In my GIS attachments, I supported infrastructure planning at Eldoret Water & Sanitation Company (ELDOWAS) and collaborated at RCMRD on geospatial workflows. I digitized and maintained datasets, conducted spatial analysis, and worked with multidisciplinary teams to keep GIS outputs accurate and usable.

I’m actively seeking entry-level GIS, mapping, or spatial data roles where I can grow professionally and contribute meaningfully to impactful projects—especially in environmental monitoring, land use and land cover mapping, and infrastructure planning.
