    • Independent Consultant

      Jan 2009 - now

      I use my knowledge of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to support the programs of the Biodiversity and Natural Resources sectors. Beyond mapping, I answer geo-spatial questions and perform analysis, do modeling and provide technical support to the GIS users in the field offices. I feel that GIS is able to offer a new perspective on data and is suited to today’s new style of short communication because of its capacity to synthesize and display information. I strive to make data relevant and accessible and provide technical capacity development expertise to communities in various sustainable conservation initiatives using tools such as MIS, Workshops, Meetings, Questionnaires and Surveys Show less
