Computational
geophysicist

I build physics-guided AI and open-source tools that turn subsurface and satellite data into forecasts people can trust, for natural hazards, groundwater and mineral resources.

Ongoing initiative

Water4All Africa

Better water decisions, stronger water security.

An open water-data and decision-support platform that connects community needs, field science and trustworthy modelling, with AI-assisted groundwater and drilling intelligence at its core.

  • Côte d’Ivoire as first pilot node
  • 54 African country nodes prepared
  • Observe → Understand → Predict → Validate → Act
