Cory George

Created conceptual designs for prospective projects, provided bill of quantities for minor building renovations, and produced architectural and construction drawings.

Developed updated building footprint database to support national-scale seismic risk assessment for Dominica. Used QGIS to generate, validate, and classify building footprint datasets and prepared geospatial exposure inputs for risk modelling frameworks.

Contributed to city-scale seismic risk assessment to inform infrastructure and disaster risk reduction planning. Developed a GIS-based building exposure model covering 50,000+ buildings across 11 communities, integrating structural typology classification and land-use mapping.

Managed structural quality control and inspection for construction of a 9-storey reinforced concrete building. Performed reinforcement inspections, slab quality checks, and material optimization, and prepared technical reports and method statements ensuring compliance with structural safety standards.

Completed GIS Climate Action certificate, developing geospatial models and dashboards for climate risk assessment.

Completed Applied Statistical Methods for Research certificate, covering descriptive statistics, hypothesis testing, and regression techniques.

BSc in Civil Engineering from the University of the West Indies, St. Augustine.

Completed Geohazards Risk Assessment Training using OpenQuake, interpreting probabilistic loss outputs and damage distributions.

MSc in Earthquake Engineering and Disaster Management from University College London.

Participated in catastrophe modelling program, gaining exposure to insurance market workflows including event sets and loss metrics.

Completed certificate on Natural Disasters and Climate Change Risk Assessment in Infrastructure Projects.

Completed training in seismology, seismic data analysis, engineering seismology, and seismic hazard and risk assessment using OpenQuake.
