Adam is a lynda.com author, LinkedIn Learning Instructor, and a freelance cartographer based in Bellingham, Washington.

After graduating with a degree in Architecture from Arizona State University, he serendipitously stumbled into databases, then GIS, then cartography through postgrad coursework at Western Washington University and an internship with the National Park Service at Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve.

He loves the intersection of traditional graphic design and printmaking techniques combined with modern web applications and a pinch of interactive data visualization. He has a passion for fine typography, Pantone swatch books, and the smell of inked pages fresh off the press.
