About

I am a PhD student at The University of Alabama, focusing on advanced remote sensing and GIScience to enhance hydrology and water resource management. I explore innovative applications like urban flood modeling using machine learning, digital twins, and IoT to develop dynamic, precise models. This work builds on my MS thesis from the University of Florida, which applied a multi-platform laser scanning approach to forest inventory.
