In August, longtime GIS intern Eric Lee began a new journey -- as a full-time GIS contractor at New Jersey American Water!
“Eric is perfect for this position” shared Hopeworks GIS Director Luis Olivieri. “In his time at Hopeworks, he has shown us his tremendous work ethic, diligence, and attention to detail. He will excel in this role!”
At Hopeworks, Eric was responsible for data analysis and quality assurance for some of the organization’s largest GIS contracts with American Water, an experience he will build upon in his new role at American Water.
As Eric shared in a recent essay, “Even though I know I am going to face different problems along the way, with the motivation of family and friends, including myself, I know I can make it . . . there are a lot of things that still need to be done and a bunch of work that still needs to be finished in order for me to reach my goal.”
Congratulations to Eric in moving into the next phase of his career!
