Profile

I am a Lecturer and Researcher committed to bridging academic excellence with practical applications in climate change resilience and global health. My research work focuses on climate change, environmental sustainability, WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) and Occupational Health and Safety.

Area of Expertise:
My expertise includes the critical Public Health implications of climate change on WASH, gendered vulnerabilities, occupational health and environmental health. My experience so far integrates Environmental Science and Public Health; this covers ecosystem studies, disease prevention, health impact tracking and regulatory strategies.

Teaching and Mentorship:
I teach courses in waste management, hygiene, occupational health and safety, pest and vector control, climate change and health, gendered vulnerabilities of climate action and water supply and treatment. I also mentor students to navigate the academic environment, their professional and personal development goals.

Collaborations and Projects:
I have collaborated on projects aimed at improving environmental and public health standards, applying both laboratory and social science (mixed method) approaches. I supervise undergraduate and postgraduate research in WASH, climate change, occupational exposures and environmental quality.

Publications and Presentations:
I have authored and co-authored peer‑reviewed research papers and presented my work at conferences and research dissemination fora. I contributed to a scientific discussion on the health impacts of climate change through the Geneva Learning Foundation.

Patronage:
I am the founder and patron of the Environmental Health Club at UHAS-Fred N. Binka School of Public Health.

Community Engagement:
I am dedicated to developing and evaluating strategies for effectively disseminating research findings to diverse stakeholders, including policymakers, practitioners and local communities. My work includes leading community outreach programmes that promote environmental health awareness and education, while integrating innovative and indigenous solutions for a healthier and safer environment.
