Duncan’s job within thinkWhere varies from data management, to delivering training and support to customers, and working on specific GIS projects.

Duncan says “Of all the staff I’m probably the one most likely to stand out, once being described as looking like a cross between a hipster and a pro-skateboarder. When not trying to convince you that GIS is cool, I can be found podcasting, running and adding to my expanding collection of tattoos (I’m running out of space).”
