WELCOME!
Hello—I'm Gareth! I'm a mapmaker, fiction writer, educator, and currently a PhD student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. My research interests include place-based storytelling, situated learning, and indigenous cartographies. My mapmaking often manifests as stories, tours, and atlases, guided by the use of open-source mapmaking tools. I believe maps can be used to broaden our understanding of place and power, and I hope to inspire my students to do so, too. Check out my resume if you think our interests might align. I'd love to hear from you at baldricafran@wisc.edu!
You can also find source code for most of my digital projects on my Github page.
