I actually have a certification in Microsoft technologies to use them in online teaching resources

ChatGPT

I actually refused to use ChatGPT for months until I realized it can help me summarize articles and pull out the main points. It has really helped me compare and contrast my understanding of the articles

I actually had to do multiple courses on different GIS technologies for my geography degree... ask me anything about ArcGIS

Traveling

Ecuador

I went into the Amazon Rainforest for 3 weeks, amazing experience but the biggest spiders ever!

Costa Rica

Craziest views, we went into the cloud forest, most friendly people ever

Amazing experience, but I actually got 2nd degree burns over my body from the sun and I had to walk around with a towel on my head everywhere for a week and a half

Fiji

Fastest trip ever, they had the coolest fruits there, I drank something that looks like mud but it made your mouth go numb
