Meet Paul! Paul is a Regional Geographic Information System (GIS) Specialist at FEMA Region 8. Paul started with FEMA as a local hire in early 2005 to support disaster recovery after four strong hurricanes hit Florida in just a matter of weeks. When the FEMA office in Orlando needed someone with an expertise in computer graphics, Paul answered the call and has been with the agency ever since. Paul’s work involves developing digital products like maps while also managing technical data to help answer questions and fill information gaps during disasters and emergencies. #IAMFEMA #fema #femacareers #emjobs #femaregion8 #emergencymanagement #gis
