I started studying traditional board drafting & AutoCAD at Durango high school. While still in high school I converted existing pipeline and facility infrastructure from AutoCAD to ArcGIS Enterprise databases for one of the largest re-sellers of Crude Oil, Natural Gas, Liquids, and Electrical line and facility data. For the last 20 years, I have been honing my skills in GIS, CAD, data collection, database management and overall project management. Prior to starting GIS Elevated I spent my last 5 years working at an award winning Midstream Natural Gas Company developing and managing the GIS department including survey coordination, pipeline as-built data collection and DOT Class Analysis.
