Current Interns

Amanda Hastings | Intern
Amanda Hastings is pursuing a MS in Forest Sciences at CSU. She received a BS in Honors Biology with a focus in ecology/environmental science from Appalachian State University. Her current graduate research focuses on how factors— such as a warming climate, shifting disturbance regimes, and landscape characteristics— influence forest recovery post-wildfire. Amanda is excited to be working on two projects with the Geospatial Centroid this semester and hopes to integrate GIS, remote sensing, spatial analysis, and cartography in her future work. She also enjoys yoga, photography, painting, hiking/backpacking, and travel.

Justin Hollis | Intern
Justin is a junior in Ecosystem Science and Sustainability, minoring in Watershed Science and Sustainable Water. Justin is currently looking for ways to expand GIS applications within his research interests. Outside of CSU, Justin has focused his career on public land management, using GIS to assist noxious weed programs and riparian restoration. Justin is the President of the SEEDs club and the CSU Field Ornithology club. Outside of CSU he serves as a board member for Fort Collins Audubon’s Society.

Devin Hunt | Intern
Devin is a senior pursuing a major in Watershed Science and minor in GIS. He is interested in remote sensing applications for water resource management and water quality monitoring. As a field technician at Fraser Experimental Forest, he fell in love with data collection and observing the components of the water cycle. Using R, he intends to increase the readability and accessibility of data for end users. Devin enjoys hiking, identifying fungi, and photography in the outdoors.

Madzie Boyles | Intern
Madzie is in their fourth year at CSU majoring Ecosystem Science and Sustainability in the Warner College of Natural Resources at CSU with minors in Geospatial Information Science and Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Natural Resources. They are passionate about the intersection of environmental justice and sustainability, and plan on pursuing a career in data-driven sustainability policy and geospatial data analytics post-graduation. During their time at CSU, Madzie has been involved with the Ecosystem Science and Sustainability Club, is an Honors Program Peer Mentor, and is an undergraduate representative on the Ecosystem Science and Sustainability Diversity, Equity, and Diversity Committee. In their free time, Madzie enjoys hiking, camping, spending time with friends, and reading outside in their hammock.

Lucas Roy | Intern
Lucas is a fourth-year Watershed Science major with a minor in GIS. He is excited to be working for the Centroid this year and seeks to develop GIS skills for presenting scientific research to non-scientists. He studied abroad in Tasmania, Australia during the fall of 2022 and is the president of the CSU Club Baseball team.
