Hello! I'm Gerard🌍

I'm a 28-year-old GIS software developer with a passion for maps, athletics and latin dancing. Originally from Lleida, Spain, I've been calling the Netherlands home for the past four and a half years.

My journey has been shaped by a deep fascination with geographic data and its exciting applications in the digital world. When I'm not immersed in code, you'll find me dancing salsa and bachata, hitting the track for some athletics, capturing moments through photography, or competing enthusiastically in Geoguessr (I'm a bit of a pro!).

Professionally, my journey began with a degree in Geography and Spatial Planning from Universitat de Lleida, Spain, followed by a Master's in Geo-Information Science from Wageningen University & Research in the Netherlands. This academic foundation has propelled me into a specialized role focusing on geospatial software and web development.

I'm passionate about leveraging these skills to innovate and solve complex spatial problems. My approach combines technical expertise with creative problem-solving, always aiming to deliver data-driven solutions and impactful visualizations.

Beyond my professional skills, I bring unique perspectives from my experiences as a former international athlete in 60m and 110m hurdles and as an EASA certified drone pilot-operator. These experiences have honed my discipline, attention to detail, and ability to perform under pressure.
