May 2011 - Present
As an Analyst, I work closely with many project partners to develop interactive web resources for the presentation and dissemination of humanities research output. I specialize in creating geospatial visualization and user configurable sites with Django. I'm interested in leveraging the power of geospatial databases and improving the spatial literacy of researchers through training and workshops. I take the departmental lead in all projects which incorporate digital creative practice, with a special interest in 3D, AR and VR applications. I enjoy working with GLAM sector organizations to help them leverage their collections in digital platforms.
