About

With over 15 years of experience in providing open source GIS solutions and services, I am a passionate and versatile FullStack Geospatial Developer currently at my own startup/studio Geocrafter. My mission is to help clients leverage the power of geospatial data and technologies to solve complex problems and create value. I have a strong background in GIS, data science, and forestry, and I enjoy working on projects that combine these domains. I am always eager to learn new skills and tools, and to collaborate with diverse and talented teams.
