Three ways to work with me
Taking on contract work with organisations worldwide.
-
Policy research built from numbers and lived experience together. I run mixed-methods studies (spatial data, surveys, mapping, focus groups, participatory methods) and turn them into evidence that holds up in a planning meeting. Much of this work has examined how climate change affects cities: flooding, drought, heat, and disaster risk reduction.
-
Nature-based design for cities under pressure. I develop responses to urban flooding and the heat island effect at the scale of a street, a park, or a district, shaped with the people who will live with them through participatory design and sustained community engagement.
-
Capacity building with young people and communities across regions on sustainable development and climate resilience. I design learning that travels (toolkits, workshops, curricula, digital programmes) and support the frameworks and partnerships that keep it running, working with international organisations, non-profits, and private-sector actors.
How I work?
I work with governments, international organizations, non-profits, design studios, and private sector partners on projects where water, heat, and risk shape how people live. My training is in urban design and environmental conservation education, and the practice moves between the two: spatial evidence on one side, the workshops and toolkits that put it to use on the other, including capacity-building and education programs.
