About Me
I am a 28 year old Florida native that has saltwater pumping through my veins and love for the outdoors. I have been with my wife fo 9 years married for 2. We just had a son on November 16th, Luca. I have 3 cats and 2 dogs, they pretty much run the house. Maps have been an obsession of mine for as long as I remember. At least since the days of riding around in the car on family road trips and pulling the map out of the glove compartment. I embarked on my GIS journey about 2 years ago and had no idea it would take me where it has. I have grown compassionate for the world of GIS and look forward to my future in it. I will start my Masters Degree in Geographic Information Science Administration in the Spring of 2019.
