About Me
Growing up in a hot semi-arid region (Köppen BSh) frequently affected by drought and groundwater stress, and having experienced it firsthand, I developed a deep curiosity about how aquifer systems respond to climate extremes, human use, and their broader impact on vulnerable communities.
PhD Candidate in Geosciences
Virginia Tech - Specializing in Hydrogeodesy, working with Dr. Susanna Werth and Dr. Manoochehr Shirzaei.
Research Methods
Satellite geodesy, radar remote sensing, physics-based poromechanical models, and artificial intelligence.
Background
Geo-information Science, Earth Observation, and Geography.
Research Focus
Groundwater storage dynamics, geohazards, and their intersection with climate change and vulnerable communities.
"My goal is to provide policymakers with critical insights for developing sustainable groundwater management policies, helping vulnerable communities tackle water scarcity and related geohazards amid changing climatic conditions."
