GIS Project Manager
I excel at analyzing geospatial needs and requirements, and then finding a successful means to reach the project deliverable. As a Geographer I am trained to see the “Big Picture,” so I inherently bring this view to every project. This, combined with my experience and talent, is why I have been successful as a Project Manager of Geospatial Technology. I have proven this several times throughout my career, with Parsons, the Forest Service, the University of Montana, and again with the United Nations Department of Peace Keeping Operations Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. I hope to be able to find a company whom can benefit from my experience, skills, and talents, and also offers me an opportunity to continue my current growth trajectory.
