Bio:

Jamie started with WIM in the fall of 2015 as a GIS Specialist. She was instrumental in developing and documenting the use of interactive spatial and story-telling web applications, “geonarratives”, as a new and innovative science communication tool to be utilized by the USGS. In the spring of 2016, she was a co-presenter at the plenary session of the ESRI Federal GIS conference, demonstrating the successful use of geonarratives within the USGS. Jamie worked for WIM on various GIS projects through 2020. She is now an Information Specialist for the USGS Upper Midwest Water Science Center (UMid), managing the social media and web presence of UMid, conducting outreach efforts and continuing to work on GIS projects.
