Civil & Hydraulic Engineer | Expertise in Flood Control, Water Resources, and Environmental Infrastructure

Profile Summary

I am a Civil Engineer with a Master's specialization in Hydraulics, with experience in river restoration, sediment management and environmental water systems. My work has focused on studying sediment replenishment and its impact on aquatic habitats, as well as applying advanced hydraulic modeling tools to analyze flood risks and design sustainable water infrastructures. I also bring hands-on experience from site engineering, where I supervised and executed construction projects. With a strong background bridging research and practice, I can support projects involving technical reviews, environmental assessments, hydraulic modeling and the development of solutions for water resources and infrastructure management.
