Senior NatCat engineer (MSc Hydraulic Engineering, TU Delft) with 6+ years in flood and climate risk for governments, development partners and the private sector. I build decision tools for climate and disaster risk: hazard models, forecasts and Earth-observation analytics turned into answers to where to build, how to finance risk, when to act, where to respond and what to rebuild first.
