I am a civil engineer and academic specializing in hydrology, water resources engineering, and Geographic Information Systems (GIS). My academic journey has focused on applying geospatial technologies, remote sensing, and multi-criteria decision-making techniques to address water resources and environmental challenges. As a university lecturer, I teach hydrology, GIS, and supervise undergraduate research projects, helping students develop analytical and problem-solving skills. My research interests include groundwater potential assessment, flood analysis, watershed management, and GIS-based decision support systems. Looking ahead, I aspire to advance scientific knowledge through high-quality international publications, contribute to sustainable water resources management, and strengthen the integration of GIS and emerging technologies in civil engineering education and research.
