For over the past decade and a half I have focused all of my efforts in the professional and academic expansion of the geospatial professions. Whether working for a plethora of different types of private consulting firms collecting, analyzing, and displaying geographic data or working as an academic, researching and contributing to the corpus of educational knowledge, my passion in life is geography. As an energetic and enthusiastic public speaker, teacher, and thought leader I have enjoyed sharing my successes with others and seeing them flourish. Specifically my interests in the geospatial fields include the geography of behavior, sustainable and resilient geodesign, geographic science pedagogy (especially online education), and geospatial technologies as a whole. Let me conclude by saying, I love innovative GIS tech!
