About
I am an Assistant Professor in the College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences at Haramaya University, with over 15 years of academic, research, and consultancy experience. I hold MSc degrees in Rangeland Ecology and Management and Environmental Resource Management, and I am currently a PhD candidate in Biodiversity Management. My PhD research focuses on the assessment of drought. and the application of nature-based solutions (NbS) for drought risk management in East Africa. I also completed a PhD exchange program at the Department of Geography, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), from May 2023 to February 2024. My broader research interests include environmental hazards such as droughts, floods, landslides, and desertification across East Africa. I integrate geospatial analysis, remote sensing, and advanced environmental modelling using tools such as Google Earth Engine, Python Colab, and RStudio. I apply machine learning and deep learning techniques to monitor and model climate-driven hazards and their impacts on ecosystems and livelihoods. I am also a licensed Senior Ecosystem and Biodiversity Management and Environmental Pollution Consultant. I have led and participated in multidisciplinary research projects funded by international and national agencies. Collaborations include institutions like NTNU, Makerere University, ILRI, and Frankfurt. Zoological Society. My work informs policy and enhances resilience and sustainable resource management through collaborative, evidence-based approaches.
