"I hold an M.S. in Geography from Florida State University and have five years of combined academic and professional experience in GIS and remote sensing. I have served as a Graduate Teaching Assistant and lab instructor in the FSU GIS Lab, where I led labs, created clear step-by-step workflows, and helped students troubleshoot complex tasks in ArcGIS Pro and Python. Professionally, I have worked as a GIS Analyst supporting real projects with geocoding, network accessibility, hotspot analysis, interactive mapping, and clean deliverables for decision makers.

My tutoring approach is structured and practical. We begin by clarifying your goal and the data you have, then break the work into small steps so you can see immediate progress. I demonstrate a workflow, have you practice it yourself, and leave you with reusable notes or a checklist. Along the way, I explain key concepts in plain language, including projections and coordinate systems, spatial joins and geoprocessing, raster classification and accuracy assessment, and cartographic design for clear, publication-ready maps.

I support college and graduate students, early-career analysts, and motivated high school learners. Common topics include ArcGIS Pro, ArcPy, QGIS, ENVI, and SNAP, as well as open-source Python and R tools such as GeoPandas, Shapely, xarray, rasterio, GDAL, sf, and terra. I can help with labs and assignments, research workflows, and workplace projects from data cleaning and database design to modeling, automation, and visualization—meeting you at your level and helping you progress efficiently and confidently." less...
