I’m a geographer and spatial data scientist. I have expertise in geospatial software development, remote sensing and satellite image analysis, and statistical analysis and machine learning. My research uses socio-economic, climatic, and environmental datasets to monitor and detect climatic and environmental changes and explore how these changes impact society. I have developed and coordinate the Advanced Spatial Analysis unit, which teaches undergraduate students a range of data science skills relevant for working with geospatial data.

I collaborate widely across research, government, not-for-profit, and private sectors. I have recent experience working in Australia, South Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Pacific Island Countries. Alongside my research activities, I develop and deliver GIS and geospatial data analysis training for a range of audiences spanning university education to government officials.
