Summary:

I am a dynamic professional with ample customer service experience currently seeking a Geospatial Analyst position
where I can apply practical skills to a designated field within geographic information systems. I have confidence that
my passions, dedication, and veracity will have a positive impact on any project or task I may be involved in. I am
highly adept at communicating via written and verbal correspondence and have a strong understanding of GIS
concepts and techniques. That includes, but is not limited to, geospatial data creation, conversion, manipulation, and
analysis. I am quick to learn and highly adaptable to various environments. Also, I have the ability to understand and
execute requests from supervisors as well as manage projects independently with little or no assistance. However, if I
do encounter a situation where I may have any shortcomings or problems, I do not hesitate to ask for opinions or
guidance. There is always room to grow and I am constantly looking for opportunities to expand my knowledge base.
My positive attitude, drive, and attention to detail will provide a strong ability to build relationships with colleagues,
grow with the job, and handle responsibilities in an organized fashion.
