I am a Chartered Professional Engineer in Civil Engineering, holding a PhD in Civil Engineering. My research centres on numerical and physical modelling 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.
In my teaching role, I focus on subjects related to water, such as hydrology, hydraulics, and water resources engineering. My aim is to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to tackle the complex challenges in water management and environmental sustainability.
