Kyle Bauer is a product engineer on the Learn ArcGIS team at Esri, where he writes GIS tutorials based on real-world scenarios. He has been with Esri for six years and graduated summa cum laude from the University of California Los Angeles with a degree in English and geography. His goal is to teach GIS in a way that is understandable to people without advanced technical knowledge of the software.
Colleen Conner has served 17 years as a corporate librarian at Esri, where she has devoted herself to building what is now one of the world's largest physical and virtual collections of maps and GIS-focused material. The Esri Library provides online GIS resources to educators, students, and the GIS community worldwide, and keeps Esri at the forefront of GIS research. Conner assists researchers and software developers, helping maintain the company's position on the cutting edge of location-based technology. Over the course of her career—spanning more than 22 years, working in both libraries and museums—she has championed the development of early spatial-thinking skills and recognized the need for children's educational materials.
Wesley Jones is a professional cartographer and has worked at Esri for over a decade. Born in Calgary, Canada he studied geography and history at the University of Calgary before specializing in cartography at the Centre of Geographic Sciences in Nova Scotia. He now calls Redlands, California home. When he is not making maps, he is drawing, and has illustrated a comic and several books. Wes enjoys sports and being outside, but he especially enjoys storytelling. According to his children, his claim to fame is his bedtime stories.
