About me

My name is Mark Marji. I graduated from the University of Kentucky with my Masters degree in Applied Environmental and Sustainability Science (Applied ENS) and did an internship with the Linguistic Atlas Project while completing my Masters. In March 2024, I received my graduate degree in digital mapping. Additionally, I earned a Bachelor of Science in Digital Media and Design in 2022.

Skills

GIS
I have experience in operating and creating GIS maps using the QGIS program. I'm also skilled in changing the projection of the map along with the CRS (coordinate reference system).
Coding
I have experience in coding with the use of GitHub. I have knowledge in using the VS Code to create an index and the GitHub Desktop to save what I have done. I have also learned how to do a JavaScript and CSS file by using the VS Code.
ArcGIS
I recently gained a hands-on experience with ArcGIS and ArcGIS Pro, utilizing its tools for spatial analysis, data visualization, and mapping. I used ArcGIS to create impactful geospatial outputs, such as detailed maps, choropleth maps, and spatial models to support data-driven insights and decision-making.
