I am an interdisciplinary geographer broadly interested in the nexus of human geography and GIS/cartography. Specifically, I examine how urban and economic topics intersect with the map, technological evolution in cartography, and the information management of geospatial data. I also have interests in the intellectual history of geography, map studies, and their impacts on current scholarship. Budding areas of interest include digital political ecology and queer spatial histories.

I am also serving as the Student Councilor for the American Association of Geographers from 2020-2022. Feel free to reach out to me with any questions or concerns you may have about the discipline!

John is my legal name, but I prefer Jack. I use he/him/his pronouns.
