Hi everyone! I'm Leena Abdulqader🤠, a master’s student in geosciences at the University of Texas at Austin 🤘🏼🧡🐂. My research focuses on the tectonic and geochronological evolution of South Jordan using GIS and dating methods.
Before grad school, I worked at Esri as a technical support analyst, where I discovered my passion for applying GIS in earth science, education, and storytelling.
I recently published a blog post on the Esri YPN blog titled "Powering Connections," reflecting on my experience as a student assistant at the 2025 Energy Resources GIS Conference. You can read it here:

I'm hoping to continue contributing to this amazing community as a YPN Content Ambassador, and would love to connect with others who are passionate about GIS, fieldwork, and inclusive science.
