About

I am a GIS Cartographer and Visualization Analyst with a strong background in geography, environmental management, and humanitarian-focused research. My expertise lies in transforming spatial and statistical data into clear, compelling maps, and visual reports that drive understanding and decision-making for both technical and non-technical audiences. With hands-on proficiency in ArcGIS, QGIS, Remote Sensing, and MS Office, I bring practical experience in geospatial data acquisition, map design, environmental analysis, and data storytelling. I have contributed to global open-source projects with Unique Mappers, OpenStreetMap, and the Wikimedia Foundation, where I helped build accessible environmental and humanitarian datasets for community development and sustainability initiatives. Beyond cartography, I offer complementary skills in report writing, article development, transcription, and web presentation, enabling me to deliver well-rounded solutions that connect data, people, and impact. I am passionate about using spatial research, visualization, and technology to support sustainability, water resources, and community development programs. Always eager to learn and adapt, I bring curiosity, technical expertise, and creativity to every project. 📌 Open to collaborations on GIS, cartography, environmental data visualization, and community-driven development projects.
