Growing up in Northern California, Stephen spent much of his time enjoying the nature of Lake Tahoe, Monterey, and the Sacramento delta. As Tualatin SWCD’s Information Systems Coordinator, Stephen manages conservation program data and finds the best ways to share that information with others. Stephen’s backgrounds in GIS, database management, C#, and 3D environment design allow him to collect, build, and represent data in unique ways. He earned both his B.A. and M.A. in Geography and GIS from California State University Long Beach. Prior to joining Tualatin SWCD, Stephen’s work focused on utility-related information systems while employed with agencies such as Clean Water Services, Orange County Water District, and the City of Manhattan Beach. Stephen has several hobbies to keep him busy when he isn’t working, but usually he can be found racing cars, tabletop gaming, and exploring Oregon with his wife and two kids.
