About Me

I am a Chartered Professional Engineer in Civil Engineering.  My research area includes numerical and physical modeling of water-induced problems, including floods, landslides, and erosion. I'm also deeply interested in the impact of climate change on these issues and urban flood management.

I teach subjects related to water, such as hydrology, hydraulics, and water resources engineering. I aim to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to tackle the complex challenges in water management and environmental sustainability.
