I'm a geospatial web developer at Foursquare, focusing on the Studio platform, and also perviously served as the Non-Academic Director of the AAG Cartography Specialty Group. My own schooling focused heavily on cartography and remote sensing time-series analysis.

Lately, I've been enjoying collaborating with other folks to make compelling web maps and data visualizations in a variety of front-end JavaScript frameworks. It's been a lot of fun working on open-source projects like Kepler.gl, Esri Leaflet, and contributing to Projection Wizard. I occasionally push pixels by writing scientific algorithms to analyze complex Earth observation data.
