I have 15 years of experience in building GIS databases. Most of my experience is in utility-based GIS. For the last 4 years, I have been focusing on building a GIS in a mixed proprietary and open-source environment at the City of Imperial Beach. My current interests are in the areas of GIS database development and structure, and task streamlining and automation. In the near future, I want to gain more experience in serving task-focused maps on the web. I have a bachelors degree in geography from the University of Washington.
