Ann’s background includes a Bachelor and Master of Science degree in Geology.  While teaching Earth Sciences, she became interested in how Geographic Information Systems can be used as a tool in geology and education.  After attending an NSF funded workshop to help college faculty learn GIS, she developed a GIS Certificate Program at San Bernardino Valley College.  In 1997 she joined ESRI as Higher Education Manager helping colleges and universities develop GIS programs.   She has been Co-PI on several NSF Grants related to GIS and two-year colleges and is a co-editor for the UCGIS Body of Knowledge and a lead on the development of the Geospatial Technology Competency Model curriculum outlines for Model Courses.  Currently she is Associate Director of the GeoTech Center NSF grant to support community college geospatial programs and Co-PI on the iGETT NSF grant to provide faculty education in remote sensing.  She lives in Salmon, Idaho with husband, Robert, a dog, Siv and 4 chickens – a great place for fishing, geology and GIS.
