| My academic and research interests are deeply rooted at the intersection of ecology, spatial analysis, and data-driven conservation. I possess a specialized focus on chemical ecology of insects, where I am fascinated by the complex semiochemical interactions that govern insect behavior, plant-insect relationships, and trophic dynamics. To effectively scale these intricate biological interactions and translate them into actionable conservation strategies, I am proficient in geographical information systems (GIS) for spatial modeling and habitat analysis. This expertise directly supports my interest in sustainable land use planning, where I aim to integrate ecological data with urban and rural development plans to promote biodiversity and ecosystem resilience. Underpinning all of my research is a strong foundation in biostatistics, which I employ to design robust experiments, rigorously analyze complex ecological datasets, and derive meaningful, statistically sound conclusions from field and laboratory observations. | |
| My professional passion lies in harnessing environmental data to drive sustainable land management and conservation outcomes. I am particularly focused on integrating meteorological data analysis with advanced satellite imagery to inform robust land use planning, ensuring that development decisions are resilient to climate variability and minimize ecological disruption. A key application of this work is in the development and monitoring of eco habitat development projects, where I aim to design and restore functional landscapes that support biodiversity. This expertise directly supports the zoo taxa community by providing scientific frameworks for in-situ and ex-situ conservation initiatives and habitat suitability analyses. Furthermore, I am keenly interested in quantifying the environmental benefits of such projects to generate verifiable carbon credits, creating a vital economic incentive for conservation and providing a holistic approach to addressing both the biodiversity and climate crises. |
