Experienced hydrologist and developer specializing in GIS and programming.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated hydrologist and GIS specialist with over 10 years of experience in water management. My career has been marked by a commitment to applying advanced hydrological modeling techniques and geodetic measurements to address critical environmental challenges. Since 2022, I have expanded my skill set by working part-time as a C++ and Python developer at Eötvös Loránd University, where I contribute to innovative projects that leverage programming to enhance data analysis and environmental modeling.
Throughout my career, I have been involved in significant projects, including the European Commission's flood risk management program and assessments of climate change impacts on hydrology. My expertise in using GIS tools and programming languages such as Python and C++ allows me to process and analyze large datasets effectively. I am passionate about utilizing my skills to contribute to sustainable water management solutions and to further develop my technical abilities in programming and data analytics.
