Anita currently serves as Program Lead for Humanitarian Information Management projects.
Anita has served in the information technology sector specializing in Geographic Information
Systems and application development for dozens of years in private and public sectors.
Recent achievements include laying the groundwork for new funding in Public Service
and Outreach in two information technology service areas. These provide resources
to ensure continued support in transportation planning and environmental stewardship
for the state and global humanitarian information management. With transportation
planning, she managed teams instituting Ecology, National Register and Social applications
where more than 600 transportation projects are now logged for environmental review
processes and new datasets and application programming interfaces (APIs) are leveraged
for state agency coordination of mission critical data.
She now leads a team of professionals dedicated for providing Common Operational Datasets
and other GIS and visualization products and applications supporting planning activities
in humanitarian disaster preparedness and response. In this role, she coordinates
project activities with the United Nations Office of Coordination of Humanitarian
Affairs through USAID sponsorship and works with other humanitarian groups to develop
sustainable assessment, planning and data capture tools and processes supporting humanitarians
working to support and restore welfare of populations in distress.
In addition to transportation, environmental stewardship and humanitarian work, she
has worked in scholastic, power, parks and recreation, public health and economic
development sectors to implement technology solutions and processes. In addition to
prototyping, planning, designing, building and deploying and migrating applications
and data on platforms maximizing benefit, she has managed teams for these and provided
training for GIS and technologies for professionals and legislators.
