Background:

I've spent over a decade in applied research and teaching Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing. I've been involved extensively in the development and teaching of GIS and remote sensing courses in both the university and professional development arenas. From 1994-1998 I conducted numerous workshops and training sessions as part of a NASA-funded research effort focused on bringing spatial analysis technologies to resource managers in Minnesota. I joined the faculty at Humboldt State in the fall of 1998 where I now teach courses in mapping, GIS and spatial data analysis.
