About

My career began with a degree in geography, followed by a Master's in Environmental Management. From there, I moved into the professional world, where I quickly found a passion for using data and technology to solve real-world environmental and infrastructure challenges. I’ve had the opportunity to work on nationally significant projects, developing custom GIS tools and automated workflows that directly impact sustainability and efficiency.

Current or most recent role

I am a Senior GIS Consultant specialising in process improvement, workflow automation, data management, and spatial analysis. I have played a key role in delivering complex projects, consistently adapting to new challenges and ensuring high-quality, results-driven solutions. 

Previous experience

Through being a STEM Ambassador, I am a volunteer at a weekly local coding club, which I have been running in Filton, Bristol since August 2023. In addition to this, I've attended several university career fairs. 

Why I want to become a professional ambassador

I’m keen to share what opportunities are available in the world of geography, particularly highlighting the exciting, tech-driven careers available in this field. GIS and environmental data science often fly under the radar and I want to show young people — especially those who may not initially see themselves in geography — that there are diverse, creative, and impactful roles out there.
