Armstead credits her dual love of GIS and learning for successfully achieving the <a href=\"https:\/\/go.esri.com\/arcgis-desktop-associate\">ArcGIS Desktop Associate certification<\/a>.\r\n\r\n\u201cWho knew that my earlier disdain for science would turn into a full-blown passion,\u201d she exclaimed.\r\n\r\nLooking for inspiration for your GIS journey?
