Alefiya Dungrawala
Started out as a software programmer with a formal education in computer science, I have worked in the field of software development for 3 years. I hold a GIS certificate from Mohawk College, Hamilton.
The field of geographical information systems has me gravitating towards it. The idea that I can combine my computer science background with newly acquired skills in automating map production and integrating earth imagery has me excited!
