Hello!
Thanks for stopping by!
I’m a PhD Student in Civil Engineering (Major: Water Resources Engineering) in the Coastal Risks and Engineering Lab at the University of Central Florida (UCF). I’ve been working on a National Academy of Sciences (NAS) funded project “The New First Line of Defense: Building Community Resilience through Residential Risk Disclosure” for studying the multi-hazards risk including their possible spatial and temporal interactions and dynamic vulnerability and exposure. Before joining the UCF, I was working at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in France as a MOPGA Researcher. My work at CNRS focused on coupled modelling of flash floods and population exposure and vulnerability dynamics for forecasting the potential socio-economic impacts of flash floods in South France.
