GIS Technician with around 1.5 years of experience in spatial analysis, mapping, and geospatial data management. I hold a Masters in GIS and Remote Sensing from Maynooth University and a Masters in Applied Geology, which gives me a solid foundation for projects involving geological and geophysical context.
Most recently, I worked with Applied Aerial Technology on a vegetation mapping project along the Irish Rail network, where I processed high-resolution drone imagery, digitised tree species across railway corridors, and built Python and R scripts to automate individual tree detection from LiDAR data. Before that, I interned as a Research Assistant on the 5*S: Space, Surveyors & Students Programme at Maynooth University, processing drone imagery to generate orthomosaics, surface models, and point clouds for land use studies, with results presented through ArcGIS StoryMaps.
Before transitioning into geospatial sciences, I spent over three years in sales and marketing with the Karma Group, a multinational hospitality brand. That experience built my communication, client-facing, and teamwork skills, qualities I carry into every GIS project today.
Python/ R for geospatial programming and workflow automations has been my recent focus, along with a continuous effort to upskill and stay tuned with evolving geospatial technologies. Check out my work here.
