Naomi Kamau

I’m excited to apply for the  GIS intern position in your organization . I believe that my education, skill set, and experience make me a suitable candidate for this role. I am a highly organized and self-driven individual, passionate about developing my career in the field of Cartography and Geographic information system (GIS). My commitment can be gauged from the fact that I’m an accredited holder of a Diploma in Cartography and Geographic information system (GIS) honors, Credit from the Regional Center for Mapping of Resources for Development. 

Possessing 3 months of experience of attachment at Kenya National Bureau of Statistics, I have gained extensive insight within the Cartography and Geographic information system (GIS) field. My key Cartography and Geographic information system (GIS) competencies include, Scanning, geo-referencing, digitizing of data, Archiving and retrieving of maps and map records, updating the geo databases, preparing and producing maps as per stakeholder’s request, generating geocodes, preparing and printing Enumeration Area maps, making of cluster maps, making of grids, and any other duties assigned by the Cartographer. 

After my attachment I volunteered to work there for a few 2 years and gained more skilled and experience. In 2022 I managed to get a contract of a month to work as a technical officer to make cluster maps for clients, where I gained more skills. 

As a Cartographer, I am an accomplished communicator, with excellent organizational, decision-making, and time management skills. 

I am seeking a challenging but rewarding position, which is why I was naturally drawn to this exciting opportunity. Please review my attached resume for additional details regarding my expertise and career achievements. Thank you for your time and Consideration
