Recent academic and professional progress
I was selected to participate in The Boggs Center's Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities (NJLEND) program as a Library and Information Science Fellow. NJLEND is an interdisciplinary graduate fellowship and leadership development program.
I was certified to graduate with a Bachelor of Arts in Computer Science from Thomas Edison State University (TESU).
In my free time
I created a Letterboxd account.
I'm still planning to update the resources page (or create a separate page) with content related to civic technology, computational social science, and data science.
What I'm learning
Esri tools (including ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Business Analyst, and ArcGIS Story Maps)
