About Me

GIS Specialist and Sports broadcaster based in Central Pennsylvania I'm a 2018 graduate of Gettysburg College with a BA in Environmental Science with a specialization in GIS and Writing. 

I’m a GIS professional, public-sector technology leader, and sports broadcaster. Most of my work has been built around communication, problem-solving, and finding better ways to share information with people.

In my GIS career, I work with maps, data, and technology to help organizations better understand their communities and make informed decisions. That work has included public mapping applications, data management, web GIS, field data collection, dashboards, and projects that make complex information easier to access and use.

I’ve also served in multiple roles in sports commentary since I began broadcasting with Gettysburg College in 2015. Since 2022, I’ve worked as a play-by-play and color commentator for Bucknell University, calling games on ESPN+, YouTube, and local radio, including 100.9 WYLV and 1070 AM. I’ve also gained experience in esports through my work with the Central Susquehanna Esports Rocket League Championship since it began.

This site brings those parts of my work together. Whether I’m building a map, explaining a dataset, calling a game, or creating content, my goal is usually the same. I want to take something complex, make it easier to understand, and help people connect with it.
