Hello, my name is Todd Coles and I live in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. I attended college at Oklahoma State University where I earned a BA in History (2001) and a BA in Geography (2003), as well as a geographic information systems (GIS) Certificate. My post-graduate work experience has been with county government, municipal government, and currently with an oil and gas company working with GIS. My interests include camping, hiking, reading (mainly history, as well as science fiction/fantasy), sports (primarily watching, although I do play disc golf), cooking, and video games. I look forward to collaborating with others toward the development of Citizendium.
