Overview
I am a researcher in Geography and Environmental Science with a PhD in Geography from the University of Birmingham (awaiting viva), specializing in flood resilience and climate adaptation. My career is defined by a commitment to sustainable urban planning and environmental justice, underpinned by extensive experience in both quantitative and qualitative research. I have contributed to impactful studies on climate resilience in river-dependent communities and have published extensively in leading environmental journals. My passion lies in developing innovative, data-driven solutions to complex environmental challenges, supporting informed decision-making for sustainable development.
"Research is not just about discovering new knowledge; it's about turning insights into action. My work in flood resilience and climate adaptation has taught me to view vulnerable people not as victims, but as a call to action, inspiring efforts to ensure a more resilient future for all."
