GIS & Remote Sensing
Spatial analysis, mapping, data collection workflows, geodatabases, and monitoring systems.
GIS / Remote Sensing / Conservation / Land Systems
Geospatial intelligence for sustainable land, nature, and development decisions.
I help institutions transform environmental, land, and spatial data into practical strategies, decision tools, maps, and partnerships that support measurable impact.
About
Technical depth, field experience, and institutional leadership.
I am a geospatial and environmental data specialist with experience across GIS, remote sensing, biodiversity information systems, ecosystem services valuation, land tenure, programme design, and technical advisory work.
My work connects data science with real decisions: conservation planning, land management, natural resources monitoring, restoration investment, and practical tools for teams and partners.
Expertise
Where I can help
Environmental Modeling
Landscape assessment, ecosystem service valuation, erosion analysis, and natural resource planning.
Biodiversity Data Systems

Journey
A career across agriculture, conservation, land, mining, data, and strategy
Strategy and Operations GIS
Working in the agriculture sector with One Acre Fund, leading geospatial projects and identifying data opportunities that improve operations and strategy.
Programme Development & Information Systems
Worked in the environmental conservation sector, directing information systems, programme design, partner engagement, outreach, and proposal development.
Community and Forest Management
Supported Gishwati conservation through community engagement, monitoring, mapping, and reforestation work.
Land Tenure Regularization
Worked in the land sector, coordinating field teams, land committees, public awareness, demarcation, and conflict resolution support.
Environmental Compliance
Served on the government side, overseeing environmental compliance and processing export certificates for compliant stakeholders.
Beyond Work
Grounded by people, movement, and the landscapes I care about.
Beyond work, I enjoy jogging, motorbike riding, nature walks, and local outdoor activities. Time with family, communities, and open landscapes keeps me connected to the people and places behind the data.
