Hi, I’m Meredith!
I want to use innovative spatial data analysis to make a positive global impact. I am a behind-the-scenes leader, and I pride myself in coming up with creative solutions to not only solve problems, but improve the processes used to arrive at those solutions.
I am a member of URISA, an Esri YPN Ambassador, a volunteer Sail Crew member with the San Diego Maritime Museum, a military spouse, and a dog mom.
See below for a glimpse into my expertise & experiences, but find me on LinkedIn at www.linkedin.com/in/meredith-b-martinez for even more.
Expertise
Geospatial Data Analysis
I have completed a Professional Certificate in GIS with Michigan State University, a Master’s Certificate in Geospatial Programming & Web Map Development with Pennsylvania State University, and am currently pursuing a M.S. in Spatial Data Science with Pennsylvania State University. ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, arcpy, Javascript, and API integration are my strong suits.
Team Management
I have managed teams in the military, federal, and civilian sectors. I love being an “ask-and-you-shall-receive” leader; my team members bring me problems, and I find creative ways to solve them.
Project Coordination
I have used my skills in continuous process improvement, task prioritization, upward management, and strategic planning to help my teams reach their goals.
Database Management
I have used SQL, custom reporting, and software like Excel, Google Sheets, Salesforce, Jira Products, and Oracle to track quantitative metrics and communicate needs & trends to my teams.
