Yes. I specialize in navigating the complex spatial requirements of agencies like the USFS, BLM, and CPW. I provide the high-fidelity mapping and "Legislative Layering" required for statutory reviews and code compliance, ensuring your project meets both environmental and regulatory standards.
Data is only as powerful as the story it tells. I translate complex GIS layers into Interactive StoryMaps and public-facing dashboards. These tools allow stakeholders to "walk" through the data, visualizing the balance between recreation and conservation in a way that builds trust and drives engagement.
I provide spatial strategy, high-fidelity mapping, and planning support for complex land-use challenges. My work spans Land Development & Entitlements, Municipal & Regional Park Planning, and NGO Advocacy for recreation and conservation.
Whether you are in the Early Concept/Master Planning phase or navigating Detailed Analysis for Code Compliance, I provide the 'Ground Truth' data needed to move your project from a proposal to a reality. My experience covers private, municipal, and federal (USFS/BLM) land frameworks.
That is exactly where I come in. I specialize in sourcing publicly avaibale date, as well as fragmented data from municipal, state, and federal databases. Whether we are starting with raw LiDAR terrain data or digitized site plans, I build the "Ground Truth" from scratch so you don't have to.
I work across the spectrum. My expertise covers Housing & Land Development (site feasibility and entitlements), Municipal Leadership (park and open space management), and NGO Advocacy. If your project involves a physical footprint on the land, I can map the path forward.
I partner with municipalities, regional planning agencies, and private land developers, conservation NGOs and community advocacy groups, as well as athletic events.
My role is flexible: I often serve as the primary spatial strategist for project leads, but I am equally effective as a technical specialist embedded within larger planning, design, or engineering teams. Whether you need a standalone 'Ground Truth' analysis or integrated GIS support for an EIR (Environmental Impact Report) or Master Plan, I bridge the gap between technical data and project delivery.
The most successful projects involve spatial strategy from the Concept and Feasibility stage. Engaging early allows us to identify regulatory constraints, jurisdictional overlaps, and physical site limitations before they become costly obstacles
However, I am frequently brought in mid-stream to provide 'Course Correction'—transforming fragmented data into clear, defensible mapping for public hearings, permit applications, or stakeholder briefings. Whether you are at Day 1 or facing a fast-approaching deadline, the best time to start the conversation is as soon as the spatial complexity of the project exceeds your current capacity.
I provide the Technical Backbone for public engagement. While I don't act as a lead facilitator, I provide the high-fidelity maps, spatial scenarios, and interactive visuals that move a community discussion from 'abstract concerns' to 'informed decisions.'
By providing Clear, Ground Truth Visuals, I help project leads communicate complex trade-offs—such as balancing recreational access with habitat conservation—in a way that stakeholders can easily grasp. My work ensures that public feedback is based on the same set of spatial facts, reducing friction and building consensus during the planning process.
I offer a hybrid approach tailored to the project's complexity. While much of the spatial modeling and data architecture is handled remotely for efficiency, I believe there is no substitute for 'Ground Truth' field verification.
I am available for site visits, field mapping, and in-person stakeholder meetings when the project context—such as steep terrain, sensitive habitats, or complex municipal hearings—benefits from a direct physical perspective. Whether I am analyzing LiDAR data from my office or walking a proposed trail alignment with a project lead, my goal is the same: absolute accuracy.
I provide spatial strategy and high-fidelity GIS analysis, but I am not a Licensed Professional Land Surveyor (PLS), Professional Engineer (PE), or Professional Biologist.
My work is designed to complement these disciplines, not replace them. I frequently act as the Spatial Integrator, coordinating with your engineering or biological teams to ensure my 'Ground Truth' data flows seamlessly into their formal assessments. If your project requires stamped surveys or official environmental permits, I can help you identify those needs early and work directly with your qualified specialists.
Every project begins with an Initial Strategy Session to define your goals, identify potential jurisdictional constraints, and establish a realistic timeline.
From there, we collaboratively develop a Scope of Work tailored to your specific 'Ground Truth' needs—whether that's a rapid feasibility audit, a multi-phase master plan, or technical exhibits for a public hearing. My goal is to ensure that by the time we move to the mapping phase, we have a clear, defensible path forward that aligns with your project’s regulatory and physical realities.
Because every project—from a municipal master plan to a private site feasibility audit—carries unique spatial and jurisdictional complexities, I do not offer 'flat-rate' packages.
My services are typically structured in two ways:
Project-Based Fixed Fee: Ideal for defined deliverables with a clear scope, such as Race & Event Cartography, Wildlife Habitat Analysis, or Nearby Parcel & Buffer Analysis.
Hourly Advisory: Reserved for more fluid, high-stakes engagements such as Technical Exhibits for Public Hearings, municipal committee support, or ongoing project management. This allows for the flexibility needed to navigate changing meeting schedules and iterative data requests.
Following our Initial Strategy Session, I provide a transparent proposal that outlines the milestones and data sourcing requirements needed to move your project forward.
