My work typically incorporates geodatabases for management and analysis of spatial information, as well as Access or PostgreSQL databases for tabular data management and analysis. I have developed custom workflows to analyze both temporal and, 3D data and my work products include web maps, interactive PDFs, and 3D models. My responsibilities include GIS and database design and analysis, fieldwork, proposal writing and cost estimation, report writing, and project management.
