https://community.esri.com/t5/member-introductions/hello-all/m-p/1694317#M2926 <P>Hello GIS friends, my name is Austin Brooks. I graduated from the University of Redlands where I initially got to experience ARC-GIS first hand. ESRI has a hug presence here of course and through my time in the local area I fell in love with the company and what GIS has to offer! I do not necessarily have an abundance of GIS knowledge but I hope to join the ESRI family in sales or Customer Success! I love to chat and hear about everyone's experience so please feel free to reach out and connect!</P> Thu, 02 Apr 2026 23:48:20 GMT BabblingBrookss 2026-04-02T23:48:20Z https://community.esri.com/t5/member-introductions/hello-all/m-p/1694317#M2926 <P>Hello GIS friends, my name is Austin Brooks.
