I build environmental assessment, monitoring, and life-cycle models that improve resource efficiency and regulatory compliance.
GermanyWhat I'm looking for
I've supported major infrastructure, regulatory, industrial, and international development projects, most recently managing environmental data and water monitoring for Balfour Beatty Vinci's HS2 programme. I reduced the monitoring network by 30% while maintaining regulatory coverage and delivered an activated-carbon treatment solution for compliant on-site concrete washout-water discharge.
I combine environmental assessment with quantitative modelling in Python, R, Excel, and openLCA. My work includes industrial energy surveys, resource-efficiency analysis, environmental compliance, and cradle-to-gate life-cycle assessment modelling with hotspot analysis.
