About Me
Welcome to my personal webpage!
As an interdisciplinary-trained professional, my mission is to contribute to creating a more sustainable, resilient, equitable, and resource-secure world for all.
I am dedicated to advancing systems approaches that acknowledge the complexity and interconnectedness of our global challenges, particularly on issues related to food system transformation, energy transition, integrated water management, disaster risk reduction, planetary health, and climate action.
My work emphasizes inclusive, evidence-based, community-engaged approaches toward improved cross-sectoral collaboration, policy coherence, and Sustainable Development.
Approach and Applications
Guided by SYSTEMS THINKING to:
- DEVELOP analytics to evaluate the impact of technological, policy, and behavioral interventions on interconnected resource systems.
- CATALYZE a dialogue around trade-offs associated with different cross-sectoral decisions.
- SUPPORT the development of evidence-based decisions for better management and governance of interconnected resource systems.
Applications of interest include
- Operationalizing water-energy-food-health nexus concepts at multiple scales.
- Sustainable and resilient food systems.
- Climate-smart agricultural technologies and innovations.
- Understanding migration and climate change impacts on interconnected resource systems.
