I am a cartographer and geographer currently working at Exit Design creating wayfinding systems for healthcare and education campuses. Prior to that role, I was a founding member and Creative Director of the GeoGraphics Lab: a cartographic production and research laboratory at the Penn State Department of Geography.

I conducted my dissertation research on designing and evaluating tactile maps for blind and low vision users, the results of which can be seen on my portfolio page. As a professional cartographer, I have created maps for a diverse range of clients and venues, including installation art for Penn State and The Alameda Creek Watershed Center, books published by Stanford University Press and The University of Chicago press, academic research articles, conference presentations, grant applications, and compliance reports.

Other topics of interests include biogeography, movement ecology, ornithology, logistics, virtual and augmented reality, mixed media maps, early digital cartography, and geospatial visualization in landscape architecture.
