Hello! I am a Tufts University graduate and passionate geospatial analyst. My work harnesses GIS
and remote sensing to foster data-driven communication about environmental inequalities. I am
particularly interested in mapping climate and water resource issues. In my free time, I enjoy
hiking, strength training and exploring new geoprocessing tools. This website serves as a forum
for expressing my technical skillset and creativity.
