I’m currently a Master’s student at Clark University in the MSGIS program. My studies are focused around the conservation applications of GIS, and I have a particular interest in wildfire. I have an undergraduate degree in Information Technology and previous conservation experience working for the Student Conservation Association. My goals for this summer are to obtain an internship with a non-profit or government agency where I can make positive conservation impacts through the use of technology, specifically geospatial technology. In addition, I’m keen on learning and absorbing the skills and knowledge necessary to propel a GIS career focused on environmental stewardship.
I am a recent graduate of the University of Massachusetts Boston (UMB) with a Bachelors of Science in Environmental Science concentrating in Earth and Hydrologic Systems. I am currently a graduate student in the School for the Environment at the UMB with anticipated graduation in May 2020. My graduate career focuses on Stormwater Management and Urban Development. I am a Teacher’s assistant for two undergraduate courses, Intro to GIS and Advanced Topics in GIS. I am also a Geospatial Analyst for projects that focus on climate change and necessary adaptions for Boston and the greater Boston area. I hope to utilize my GIS knowledge to help communicate climate change impacts to the general public and policy makers.
Amanda Payton is currently a first-year graduate student at Clark University. She will be graduating in May 2020 with a degree in Geographic Information Systems and a conservation concentration. Amanda is dedicated to the environment and hopes to spend the summer interning with an organization where she can put her geospatial skills to use assisting in conversation efforts.
