I provide geospatial support across the University of Arizona campus. I am particularly interested in helping faculty, staff, and students from all disciplines explore how they can integrate Geographic Information Systems (GIS) research methods, data analysis, and visualizations into their classrooms, research projects, assignments, or any other niche that spatial data and mapping may fill. My own interests lie in the realm of recreation ecology where I use diverse spatial and social (quantitative and qualitative) methods to understand the spatial and social dynamics of recreation on publicly managed landscapes and how these dynamics impact recreational users, the landscape, wildlife, and the managers that are tasked with managing these spaces.
