I am currently a postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University ('23-'25). My research spans from remote sensing estimates of precipitation, to fundamental hydrology, to hydrologic modelling, and to flood inundation mapping, and to social perspectives of flood impacts. I am actively looking for collaborations in these areas 👯.
