What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I apply GIS and spatial analysis to inform decisions, build interactive maps/apps, work collaboratively, and grow technical expertise in geospatial systems.

I am a detail-oriented GIS Analyst with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and five years of focused experience in spatial data analysis, digital mapping, and geospatial technology.

I have built and managed geospatial databases, created interactive web maps and GIS applications, and performed overlay, proximity, and network analyses to support strategic decisions in advertising, infrastructure, and urban planning.

Proficient in ArcGIS, QGIS, Python (ArcPy, Pandas), SQL/PostGIS, and visualization tools like Tableau and Power BI, I deliver high-accuracy digital transformations from satellite imagery and field data while communicating fluently in English and Spanish.
