What I'm looking for

I am seeking a long-term opportunity that fosters career growth and aligns with my GIS expertise.

I am a dedicated GIS professional with over six years of experience in geospatial analysis and data management. My journey in the GIS field has been marked by a commitment to delivering impactful solutions that not only meet client needs but also support sustainable development initiatives. As a Team Lead, I have honed my leadership skills while driving innovative GIS solutions across various projects.

Currently, I work as a GIS Specialist at ONxpress Transportation Partners, where I lead the inter-disciplinary review process for one of North America's largest infrastructure projects. My role involves coordinating with designers and the BIM team to convert CAD and Revit models into GIS formats, utilizing ESRI products. Additionally, I contribute to GIS curriculum development at Conestoga College, sharing my knowledge and passion for GIS with students.
