Sustainable infrastructure and climate resilience professional with diverse experience.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated professional specializing in sustainable infrastructure and climate resilience, with a strong background in project management and stakeholder engagement. My experience spans various roles, including my recent position as a Sustainable Infrastructure Programme Officer at WWF-Myanmar, where I built technical understanding and provided critical inputs for project design and implementation.
Throughout my career, I have developed a robust skill set in remote sensing and environmental management, exemplified by my work as a Remote Sensing Consultant for WWF-Myanmar, where I created maps to visualize forest changes due to gold mining activities. My commitment to addressing environmental challenges is further demonstrated through my involvement in the Plastic Pollution Project at the Asian Institute of Technology, where I supported knowledge-sharing initiatives aimed at reducing plastic pollution across the Asia-Pacific region.
