I am a GIS Specialist and Cartographer with more than a decade of experience producing high-quality spatial analysis, environmental studies, technical mapping, and cartographic products for clients in government, academia, environmental agencies, and the private sector. My background includes a BSc in Geosciences (GIS emphasis), a Postgraduate Diploma in GIS, and professional GIS certification from the Geosciences Department at Minnesota State University Moorhead. My GIS work has also been recognized through a scholarship awarded by the Minnesota GIS/LIS Consortium. I work across the full geospatial workflow, from raw data processing and georeferencing through spatial analysis, modeling, visualization, map design, and final publication. My approach emphasizes accuracy, methodological transparency, and clean, well-designed outputs suitable for reports, presentations, planning documents, research publications, and digital platforms. Core Competencies • GIS mapping and spatial analysis • Environmental, ecological, hydrological, and agricultural mapping • DEM/DSM processing, LiDAR, elevation models, and contour generation • CAD-to-GIS and GIS-to-CAD workflows • Cartographic design for print and digital use • Land cover, land use, and time-series analysis • Flood risk and climate vulnerability mapping • Satellite, aerial, and drone imagery processing • OSM-based mapping and geocoding • Database creation and management (PostGIS/PostgreSQL) • Report-ready maps, layouts, and technical visualizations I work primarily in ArcGIS, QGIS, AutoCAD, Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape, and Global Mapper, and can incorporate Python, R, SQL, Javascript and related tools where required. Technical Experience Over the past 13 years, I have completed projects involving vegetation and habitat mapping, prairie restoration, agricultural inventories, farmland asset mapping, climate risk assessment, shoreline change analysis, mining impact mapping, watershed and morphometric analysis, urban planning, infrastructure mapping, and population vulnerability studies. I have also worked extensively on land ownership and cadastral datasets, parcel digitization, land dispute mapping, and valuations. My work includes preparing high-resolution land cover datasets, integrating geodetic control points with satellite imagery, processing LiDAR-derived elevation data, and conducting geostatistical analysis for ecological, agricultural, and development-related studies. I have developed mobile GIS applications for field teams, delivered Web GIS solutions using Overpass, JavaScript, and Python, and created time-series layers for environmental and agricultural monitoring. Many projects required advanced ArcGIS extensions including Spatial Analyst, 3D Analyst, and Network Analyst. Publications and Recognitions My maps and analyses have appeared in official reports by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources and the LCCMR on prairie and grasslands restoration. I also contributed maps and co-authored a chapter on flood vulnerability and social protection in the book Migration Vulnerability: Access to Social Protection for Select Migrant Categories published by African Sun Media. Tools and Data Experience I am comfortable working with raster, vector, LiDAR, DEMs, topographic datasets, GPS data, CAD drawings, geodatabases, Python scripts, SQL queries, large governmental datasets, and custom client data. I handle georeferencing, geocoding, imagery correction, and multi-scale analysis with precision and attention to detail. How I Work I am client-focused, organized, and committed to delivering accurate results within agreed timelines. My communication is clear, and I consistently provide progress updates to ensure alignment at all stages. I am flexible with tools and workflows and adapt to the needs of each project. Revisions, corrections, and collaborative refinement are always welcome. Whether your project requires detailed spatial analysis, custom mapping, technical visualizations, environmental insights, or clean cartographic products, I am committed to providing reliable, high-quality deliverables that meet professional and publication standards. If you have a specific budget or project scope in mind, my standard rate of $18/hr can be adapted for well-defined or long-term projects to ensure a good fit.
