I am an environmentalist by training, with a background in classical geology. I explore the nature-human connection, by integrating process-level research with geospatial modeling and statistical methods, to aid in smart decision making. My research weaves through emerging environmental issues in the Anthropocene, ranging from water-food security to land degradation to the air quality-health nexus, that threatens the foundations of sustainability and wellbeing, especially in the developing economies.
My research has been published in frontline environmental journals of the world including (please check the ‘Publications’ page for further details):
