About
I have over two decades of experience at the intersection of climate, health, sustainability, and urbanization, guiding global decision-making for governments, industries, and communities. My expertise includes disaster management, continuity systems, sustainability, and urban climate health risk management, with a focus on integrating cross-sectoral strategies and leveraging scientific insights for actionable outcomes.
I specialize in addressing interconnected challenges like climate change, energy transition, urbanization, and disaster risk reduction, aligning these efforts with broader development goals. I developed mathematical expressions and algorithms to build Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs), providing policy-relevant insights into global environmental change and sustainable development.
Additionally, I have worked and lectured at high-level institutions, including Harvard Global Health Institute and the World Bank, among others. I have authored books and research papers in collaboration with leading scholars and Nobel Laureates. My work emphasizes public health, morbidity, and mortality assessments of emerging global health risks, innovation, and translating scientific knowledge into scalable solutions, with a strong foundation in climate science, policy, and risk frameworks. I am committed to co-designing equitable and effective climate strategies with diverse stakeholders.
