“Sarah brings a balanced mix of GIS sales and education experience that will lend itself nicely to our technical and non-technical customer base,” said Jason Bivens, Business Development Director of DATAMARK, Michael Baker International. “As a GIS subject matter expert and sales-minded individual, she will quickly become an invaluable resource for DATAMARK, our customers and our prospects.”

She also helped public safety organizations apply GIS and prepare data for NG9-1-1 using her extensive knowledge of 9-1-1, E9-1-1 and NG9-1-1 operational workflows. In addition, Rollins was a project lead for 9-1-1 dispatch mapping solution deployments, software installations and training and technical support. Over the years, she developed, published and delivered technical and non-technical training and education to a broad spectrum of industries, including public safety, health care and banking. This includes courseware design and presentation for internal and external products, marketing and user forums.
