I'm a GIS Manager and Data Scientist building spatial data systems for the Tennessee Department of Agriculture, Division of Forestry.

I turn forest, field, and operational data into maps, workflows, and decision-making tools that help public-sector teams understand what is happening on the ground and act with confidence.

I live in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Outside of GIS and forestry, I love whitewater kayaking, climbing, scuba diving, and gravel biking.

I am the founder of tin+topo, where I make custom map prints and interactive mapping applications.
