My name is Sarah Buchanan and I graduated from the University of Houston in December 2019 with a BS in Geology. Post graduation, I moved out to the hill country in Texas and worked on a Google Maps project. This experience really inspired me to go back to school and get certified in GIS. I chose the University of West Florida for it's completely online program, affordability, and great reviews. I began the Master's Certificate in GIS program in January 2018. I have to complete this course and the Special Topics course and I will be finished. It has taken me longer than I wanted because of some life circumstances and of course, money, but I have been very satisfied with the choice I made. I have been worked in three GIS positions since Google and currently work as a GIS Specialist for a great company, CHA Consulting. I love my job-I get to make maps and perform higher level data and spatial analysis than the previous GIS jobs. I am excited to see where my career path takes me and where the advancements in and from GIS take the world! Below is my story map..check it out!
