Patrick Grady is a
highly qualified Geographic Information Systems (GIS) analyst with 15+ years of
experience within the GIS, Remote Sensing (RS) and Global Positioning Systems
(GPS) fields. A broad spectrum of project experience ranging from renewable and
conventional energy utilities, environmental, natural resource management,
threatened species, wildfire and ecological modeling and analysis has provided
me a well rounded skill set. These experiences within both the public and
private sectors make me a fully qualified and ideal candidate for a wide
variety of positions within the Geospatial industry. My experiences working for
multiple agencies within these vastly different sectors has provided me with an
extremely solid and diversified background working with data in a variety of
formats, projections and file types while adhering to individual agency
standards. Through these experiences I have developed a unique skill set
focused on the entire life cycle of geospatial data. This diverse skill set
involves an in depth process which includes design and development of GPS data
dictionaries, field survey data collection, data processing, analysis,
management, serving, maintenance and archiving. Data development and
progression also involves software, hardware and data structure compatibility
as well as coordination of research and development of alternative or superior
data analyses, inventories, techniques and protocols.
My distinct career
has given me the opportunity to develop the ability to efficiently oversee and
manage project funding, internal and external staff, in house applications,
staff training, technical support and trouble shooting tasks and knowledge
transfer through such mediums as websites, newsletters and list services. I am
also a web developer for my own company, Waimea Web Design and Spatial Solutions
(WWDSS). This company sees me utilizing the powerful and popular content
management system (CMS), Drupal to create state of the art, fully dynamic and
search engine optimized, interactive websites for clients. At WWDSS I also
perform GIS analysis as a geospatial solution specialist.
I have
proven that I can quickly, easily and proficiently adapt to a variety of
working environments, scenarios, and situations. I take pride in my high level of
professionalism and that I am hardworking with exceptional creativity,
direction, and people skills in management and team scenarios. I am an excellent teacher and have a keen
knack for explaining efforts and approaches to staff as well as external
customers/agencies. I have also proven
my ability to be highly adaptive with new hardware, software and applications
so as to find the optimal solution to the task at hand.
I am actively seeking opportunities in the private or
government sectors which will allow me to apply
my diverse experience, passion and knowledge. To further my career by
applying my direct technical expertise and experience within the GIS field
towards learning, engaging and utilizing new technologies is my core objective
moving forward.
I am fortunate to be a dual citizen of both the USA
and Australia and therefore can easily engage in project work, contract roles,
full, part time or casual positions very easily. I currently spend my time
between San Diego, California and Hawaii as I have professional obligations in
both places. I am interested in hearing from you regarding any opportunities
that you may have and am very open to performing remote office work for
projects located anywhere in the world.
