About Me

GIS professional turning spatial complexity into operational clarity.

I'm a Mapping Operations and GIS professional with over 6 years of experience leading high-performing teams and delivering precision geospatial solutions across government, enterprise, and autonomous technology sectors.

My career has been defined by a passion for building systems that scale — whether that's a 25-person mapping operations team, a process change management pipeline, or an SOP documentation framework adopted across an entire organization.

I thrive at the intersection of technical depth and program leadership: comfortable deep in LiDAR point cloud classification one day, and coordinating engineering-vendor rollouts the next. I believe high-quality map data is infrastructure — and I treat it that way.

I'm open to US travel and eager to bring this expertise to autonomous vehicle mapping operations at scale.
