Willard Gustafson -I'm a scientist at heart; and a bit of a tinkerer. I love using GIS to solve spatial problems. After earning my Master’s Degree in Geography in 2002, I began a career as a satellite imagery analyst; creating vegetation maps and performing other spatial analyses for wildlife biology studies at The University of Montana's Cooperative Wildlife Research Unit. In 2008 I continued my career, after starting a family and moving cross-country, with Meshek & Associates PLC where I now specialize in 3D data analysis, server applications, and mobile data collection technologies.  I have been an active member of Oklahoma SCAUG since 2008, and have been a member of the SCAUG Executive board as the Oklahoma Representative since 2014. I aspire to bridge the gap between the GIS “Geeks" and “End-Users” by presenting the technology in a way that everyone can relate to and understand. I believe Geography is the hub of many disciplines, and if applied correctly, can be the means by which we connect and make sense of them all. GIS is the grease on the axles of business!

Madeline Dillner - "Everything is related to everything else. But near things are more related than distant things.” When one of my professors told us Tobler’s first law of geography in college, I knew I’d found the right profession. I live to find patterns and show them to others. When I was 12 I read the book Life by the Numbers that talked about fractals in nature, and it was intoxicating to me. It taught me that patterns can be observed, noted, and used to make predictions in the natural world. That is, patterns bring order to what seems like chaos. So, this analysis of patterns became a constant, underlying hum in my thoughts throughout my life. Naturally, this led me to geography in college—the study of patterns and arrangements of places and people. Before graduation, I had begun working for the Oklahoma Corporation Commission as a GIS intern, and today I am the Project Coordinator for the OCC Brownfield Program, and I manage the Oklahoma Historical Aerial Digitization Project. GIS and cartography, especially the Story Map capabilities of ArcGIS Online, are the perfect instruments for displaying patterns in beautiful ways, and I love them for that. I am happy to be part of a group that appreciates them as I do. In my free time, I like to continue my pattern-seeking by exploring the US and the world, and painting and writing to express what I find.
