What I'm looking for

I’m looking to apply my environmental and geospatial skills to coastal and hydrodynamic engineering projects within a European consulting environment.

At Poznan University of Life Sciences, I conducted field measurements and UAV data collection for my MSc research. I processed multispectral imagery, generated vegetation indices, and modelled biophysical parameters for environmental assessment.

At University of Agricultural Sciences (UAS), GKVK, I produced soil and watershed maps and automated GIS processing with Python (ArcPy). I’ve also assessed groundwater quality in Peenya Industrial Area and am looking to apply my geospatial and environmental skills to coastal and hydrodynamic engineering projects.
