What I'm looking for

I seek a senior GIS/hydrology role leading peatland restoration and monitoring projects, applying LiDAR and hydrologic modeling, mentoring teams, and collaborating internationally to deliver measurable conservation outcomes.

I am an accomplished GIS and Hydrology Specialist with over 15 years' experience in peatland management, environmental monitoring, and geographic information systems (GIS).

I have led LiDAR mapping teams and managed large-scale environmental projects, delivering work on time and within budget. I design and implement data management systems, metadata standards, and operational procedures to ensure reliable archiving and data lineage.

My field work includes coordinating peat and hydrology monitoring, installing and maintaining water level equipment, conducting peat thickness surveys, and training local observers. I have collaborated with international partners such as Deltares and Euroconsult Mott MacDonald to integrate hydrologic models, streamline project workflows, and produce high-quality technical reports.

I bring practical skills in GIS, hydrological modeling, LiDAR processing, and data analysis, paired with a results-oriented approach to conservation and restoration projects. I seek roles where I can lead monitoring programs, improve data management, and support measurable environmental outcomes.
