I developed a dashboard that became a crucial tool for multiple state agencies and partners involved in the pandemic response. Through geospatial analysis, I identified optimal locations for testing and vaccination sites and provided insights that informed the deployment of medical resources such as PPE and ventilators by the SC National Guard.

It's rewarding to see my work being used in every aspect of the statewide response, from deciding where to send soldiers and resources to make more effective and efficient decisions overall. I'm proud to be part of an agency where GIS is fully integrated into decision-making and to have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact with my skills.
