Experienced GIS analyst delivering spatial data solutions, mapping, and GIS training for development projects.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced GIS professional with decades of hands-on work in Lesotho and regional projects, focused on spatial data capture, analysis, management and presentation. I have led GIS services for government, NGOs and consulting firms, producing high-quality maps and geodatabases for decision-making.
My career includes roles from field data collection and survey interpretation to managing GIS units, training practitioners and implementing web and mobile GIS applications. I have coordinated large asset verification and resettlement mapping projects with multi-million maloti contract values.
I hold diplomas in Civil Engineering and Agriculture and have completed numerous ESRI and GIS technical trainings, including ArcGIS Desktop, ArcPad, Spatial Analyst, Survey Analyst and Python for ArcGIS. I apply strong cartographic principles and data curation practices to ensure consistent, reliable spatial outputs.
I am self-motivated, client-focused and available to commence work immediately. I bring practical field experience, technical proficiency and a track record of delivering GIS solutions that support infrastructure, water supply and land management projects.
