Congratulations to Ellen for being awarded a student assistantship to the ESRI User Conference this summer! She will be traveling to San Diego to learn more about using and applying ESRI GIS products in research, extension and everyday life.
Ellen has been working with GIS mapping softwares since her undergraduate degree, but she’s found that there are still many applications she has yet to discover. Ellen is excited to attend the conference to get some new ideas which she can bring back to the lab and her projects to make life even more geographical!
Yay Ellen!
