I graduated from the University of Massachusetts Amherst with a B.S. in Natural Resources Conservation and an M.S. in Geographic Information Systems and Technology. My background in education has not only sharpened my interpersonal and communication skills but also sparked my passion for computer-assisted analysis.During my academic journey, I developed a solid foundation in conservation, focusing on riparian habitats, climate change, and human impacts. My coursework emphasized the convergence of conservation, global change, and human geography. I acquired proficiency in various scientific and technological skills, such as Python, SQL, JavaScript, GIS analysis, and otolith analysis, enabling me to collect data on, analyze, and assess environmental change.I am committed to leveraging my skills in utilizing these technologies within GIS applications to develop sustainable solutions. My goal is to contribute effectively to the fields of Geographic Information Systems and natural resources conservation for the benefit of all species.
