I help engineering firms, mining companies, construction teams, and infrastructure developers turn raw spatial data into precise, actionable maps, ready-to-build AutoCAD designs, and geospatial insights that reduce project risks, cut costs, and speed up decision-making.
With over 3 years as a Geophysical Engineer on large-scale projects, I deliver high-accuracy geospatial solutions that support site planning, civil engineering, topographic mapping, and industrial development. My work has included geophysical surveys, detailed cartography, and CAD conversions that enable seamless integration into engineering workflows—helping clients avoid expensive rework and make confident, data-driven choices.
What I can do for your project:
✅ Geospatial analysis & mapping using ArcGIS, QGIS, and specialized tools for accurate cartography, spatial visualization, and site assessments.
✅ AutoCAD drafting & conversion — 2D/3D technical drawings, site plans, civil engineering layouts, infrastructure designs, and precise CAD file preparation.
✅ Data visualization & reporting — clear, professional maps, dashboards, and reports that communicate complex spatial insights to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Whether you need high-precision topographic maps, AutoCAD-ready infrastructure designs, land use analyses, site planning layouts, or full geospatial workflows, I focus on delivering quality results fast and reliably.
Ready to discuss how I can solve your specific geospatial or CAD challenge? Message me with project details—I respond quickly and love turning data into real value. Let's get your project mapped out accurately!

I'm a senior GIS and AI specialist. I build full geospatial and agent/LLM/ML/CV stacks, from the sensor design and data pipelines, to the central AI, and finally to the things your users touch. I hold a degree in Geography, have deep experience in Applied Artificial Intelligence, I work in ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, PostGIS, and Python. Demos below.
Here's what full-stack means in practice. Hand me a question like "what's on this land, and can we build on it," and I can plan the imagery and sensing, write the pipeline that pulls and cleans the data, train the computer vision model that reads it, run the spatial analysis in PostGIS, put an LLM agent over the top that turns the raw findings into a plain answer and takes the next action, and then ship the answer three ways: an interactive web map, a mobile app, and a print-ready sheet at 300 DPI. That's one person handling the whole chain.
What I build:
- The full ML and computer vision stack. Labeling and training data, a model that detects or segments objects in satellite, aerial, and drone imagery, and an accuracy number I can defend. A couple of my demos run a trained model live in your browser.
- AI apps and agents. LLM-backed tools on the OpenAI, Claude, and Gemini APIs: retrieval over your own documents, agents that call tools and take actions, scraping and enrichment pipelines, and Python engineering apps and platforms (VIKTOR, etc). Structured outputs I can trust in production, not a demo that falls over on real data.
- Data pipelines and sensing strategy. What to collect and how to collect it, then the ingest, cleaning, and scraping that keeps the data current.
- GIS and spatial analysis. ArcGIS Pro, QGIS, and PostGIS for cartography, heavy spatial analysis, and parcel or territory or site-selection work with an audit trail you can follow.
- Dashboards, websites, and mobile apps. The interactive map, dashboard, site, or app your team and your customers open every day, built on real data you can check.
- Print cartography. Journal-ready and boardroom-ready maps, georeferenced, at full print resolution.
Where the "senior" part shows up: I have spent the last 4 years being hired by firms with complex geospatial needs and working in capacities from C-Suite collaborator to specialists team member. Companies I have managed for have raised hundreds of millions in venture funding, shipped thousand projects, and my team in my last role did over $4M of work here on Upwork.
How I work: Some jobs are a clean fixed scope. Others run better as a monthly retainer while I sit alongside your team or manage it. Tell me what you're trying to make, and I'll suggest the setup that fits.
Got a complex geospatial or AI build that needs more than one specialty in one head? Send me a note, and open the demos while you're deciding.
