<p>I'm a Geo-professional working at the intersection of Earth Observation, Geology, and Environmental Modelling, particularly in river modelling using satellite sensors. My work includes creating workflows to support ecosystem monitoring for sensitive river catchments and wetland restoration projects. In my years of work I have contributed to ESA-supported water and carbon ventures, at conferences, and co-authored a paper whilst continuing my professional development to expand into other relevant industries. </p>
<li>Plans, designs, and implements Catchment Modelling workflows using National and Global Datasets, developing catchment basins using DEM data for UK and European rivers.

<li>Generates discharge and water quality model parameter sets, performing statistical analysis comparing model results against local river monitoring data to calibrate models.
62
+
<li>Produces and develops GEE scripts from scratch using remote sensing data to create near real-time meteorological inputs for catchment model simulations.
63
+
<li>Produces and manages geodatabase structures, maintaining catchment model and spatial file organisation alongside clear documentation.
<li>Combining Remote Sensing Meteorology data from ECMWF ERA-5 and NASA GPM IMERG in Google Earth Engine to model (in PERSIST/INCA) River Discharge and Nitrate/Phosphate, and display on an interactive dashboard. Used IFS data in the models for predictive river forecasting for 10 UK Rivers, including the Thames and Wye.
69
+
<li> Demonstrated predictive abilities of PERSIST/INCA models for the first time, achieving 65-87% goodness-of-fit.
