About me

My name is Kelsey Taylor and I’m a spatial thinker. As a geographer, I am always looking for interdisciplinary approaches to problem-solving - be that visual, quantitative, or qualitative. As a cartographer and designer, I seek the thrill of conveying complex information through digestible, aesthetically pleasing media in maps, infographics, and text. Throughout my academic and professional career,  I have gained extensive experience working with quantitative data in geographic information systems (GIS), statistical analyses, and programming. I hope to pursue additional challenges that put my cartographic skills and affinity for problem-solving to the test.

Beyond my research and professional life, I am an explorer, admitted baseball fanatic, environmentalist, and East Coaster.
