Background
Hi! I'm Carter Quesenberry — a Geography graduate from Utah Valley University with a minor in Computer Science and a Certificate of Proficiency in GIS.
I'm passionate about GIS and cartography, especially where it helps the public. My expertise spans spatial analysis, remote sensing, and geographic data visualization. I love creating maps and analyses that help organizations make informed decisions.
When I'm not mapping or coding, you'll find me in a local coffee shop with a chai latte, deep in a good book, or catching a movie with friends. Excited to keep growing as a GIS professional!
