About Me

I'm a GIS and cartography professional with two years of hands-on experience and a passion for spatial analysis and design. A recent graduate from the Centre of Geographic Sciences (COGS) in Lawrencetown, Nova Scotia, I've been focused on expanding my skills and exploring new opportunities for professional growth.

Before transitioning into GIS, I worked in finance and public sector accounting. This background has equipped me with a strong attention to detail, analytical thinking, and a commitment to integrity and professionalism, skills that continue to serve me well in my current work.
