Hello everyone,

My name is Krishna Daravath. I recently graduated from Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, Illinois, on May 9th, 2026. I completed an MBA in Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and a Master of Science in Technology.

I have over 4 years of experience working as a GIS Analyst and Programmer. I have worked with tools like ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, ArcGIS Enterprise, QGIS, Python, SQL, and geodatabases. My experience includes spatial analysis, map creation, data management, GIS QA/QC, and supporting enterprise GIS workflows.

The session focused on working with Illinois county crops data and introductory GIS concepts under the guidance of Dr. Barry J. Kronenfeld, Professor of Geography and Director of the EIU GIScience Center.Group photo from the “Introduction to GIS and Story Maps” workshop held at Eastern Illinois University – Mary J.

I am currently looking for job opportunities in GIS, geospatial analysis, and related technology fields. I am eager to apply my skills in real-world projects and continue growing in the GIS industry.

I am also active in student leadership roles and have enjoyed working with diverse teams and supporting campus organizations.

I am excited to connect with professionals in the Esri Young Professionals Network and learn from the community.

I would also like to ask a few questions to the YPN community:

  1. What inspired you to join the Young Professionals Network, and how has it helped your career in GIS?
  2. What skills should recent GIS graduates focus on to improve their chances of getting a job in the geospatial industry?
  3. What advice do you have for graduates who are starting their first GIS job search?

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to connecting with everyone.
