I am a geographer. I seek to understand the why of where. I study places and the relationships between people and their environments in order to make sense of the world and my place in it. As a geographer, I explore both the physical properties of Earth’s surface and the human societies that spread across it. I examine how human culture interacts with the natural environment and the way that location and places can have an impact on people. As a geographer, I seek to understand where things are found, why they are there, and how they develop and change over time.
