About Me

I am a geospatial professional based in Durango, CO with a background in cartography, environmental planning and permitting, and conservation advocacy. I hold a master’s degree in GIS and two bachelor’s degrees in Geography and Environmental Studies. I am also a certified GIS Professional (GISP) and an award-winning cartographer.​​ Outside of work, I spend much of my time exploring landscapes through trail running, backpacking, and climbing, and find creative outlets through photography and writing. I also make maps in my spare time, using cartography as another avenue to learn about the world and express my creativity. Whether through a map, a photograph, or a long adventure on the trail, my passion always circles back to exploring landscapes and deepening my connection with the natural world.
