About Me
GIS first piqued my interest during my undergraduate studies, but my passion for it really began in 2016 when I spent most of the year travelling through developing countries. During my travels I discerned the need for data-driven solutions to transportation, housing, resource management, and nearly every other facet of development that we take for granted in the United States.
I earned my Bachelor's Degree from the University of Washington Tacoma in Sustainable Urban Development (2015) as well as the Urban Studies Director's Award for Academic Excellence for finishing first in my undergraduate program. Additionally, I earned a certificate in Geographic Information Systems (2017) and a Master of Science in Geospatial Technologies (2018) from the University of Washington Tacoma.
My wife and I live in Tacoma, WA with our dog and four cats. We enjoy international travel and hope to someday become dual citizens of Albania and the United States.
