What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply GIS and environmental monitoring skills on infrastructure and conservation projects, with opportunities for field leadership and technical growth.

I am an environmental scientist with MSc in Environmental Science and over three years' experience delivering environmental management for infrastructure projects. I specialize in GIS, environmental monitoring, and preparation of Environmental Management Action Plans and IEE reports.

My work has included air, water, noise and laboratory monitoring, hydrological and meteorological data analysis, and community consultations during major construction projects. I have produced monthly EMAP reports and ensured compliance with environmental laws and policies on-site.

I have authored and co-authored peer-reviewed articles on landslide susceptibility, river morphology, and urban sprawl impacts using remote sensing and GIS, and I serve as a journal paper reviewer for a scientific journal.

I bring strong field and technical skills—KOBO toolbox, GIS, R, and Microsoft Office—combined with proven abilities in report writing, stakeholder engagement, and environmental planning for hydropower, tunnel and irrigation projects.
