Background

About Mitchell Halter

I recently graduated with honors from Illinois State University with a double major in geography and history. My primary focus was on geographic information systems (GIS) and I was awarded certificates in GIS and applied spatial analysis. My passions involve digital mapping, public engagement, historic preservation, and environmental science. In order to further these passions, I have strengthened my interning at the McLean County Museum of History in Bloomington, IL, which chronicles the history and local culture of central Illinois. I also recently completed an internship at the Sugar Grove Nature Center near McLean, IL. This facility works to preserve and restore the native ecosystem of Central Illinois, as well as fostering connections between people and the natural environment. I am currently seeking careers involving GIS, mapping, or urban planning, with an emphasis on resource management and community development. I am also interested in helping organizations engage their clients and enabling solutions that cause growth and benefit all parties. After graduation I plan to obtain a career where i can blend the combined skills and knowledge of both my majors to help enhance community engagement.
