What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to apply my GIS skills in a collaborative environment, where I can contribute to impactful projects and continue to grow professionally.

I am a curious-minded and detail-oriented aspiring geologist with a passion for hands-on work in the field. Currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Earth Science with a minor in Spanish and Computer Science, I have maintained a 3.95 major GPA at Lewis-Clark State College. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in geological principles and the technical skills necessary for effective spatial analysis.

During my recent role as a GIS Analyst at the Idaho Transportation Department, I utilized GIS Field Maps to track monument and culvert locations along state highways. My experience includes georeferencing old plan sheets onto digital maps using ArcGIS Pro and querying large datasets to extract meaningful insights. I am also proficient in programming languages such as Python and JavaScript, which I have applied in various projects to enhance data visualization and analysis.
