Hello everyone!
I’m Zenia, and I couldn’t be more excited to be here today!
I’m a grad student pursuing my GIS analyst degree, and my undergraduate degree is in Environmental Sciences from Grand Canyon University. School is one of my favorite things in life (weird, I know) but I genuinely enjoy learning new skills and exploring parts of the academic world I haven’t experienced before.
I fell in love with GIS during my undergrad and was thrilled to discover that UWF offered a master’s program. At the end of the program, I hope to secure a GIS job in the public sector and bring some much-needed skills. Once I complete my master’s, I hope to continue on to my PhD where I will use GIS as an additional tool to help government plan and support the most important life sustaining operations, agriculture.
If there were an easy way to describe me, it would be “different” … ha-ha. I bounce between being very extroverted and friendly in public, yet incredibly introverted at home and in my personal life. I enjoy nature, painting, reading, singing, and dancing.
I also feel incredibly lucky to be alive and grateful for the opportunities I’ve been given.
