About Me

Where Maps Meet
Modern Software

I'm a Geospatial Data Scientist and Full-Stack Developer with a passion for building systems that bridge the gap between physical location and digital intelligence.

With a background in Geomatics Engineering and advanced analytics, I specialize in creating high-performance web applications that visualize complex spatial data, automate workflows, and drive decision-making for land administration and urban planning.

Dadaab Climate Risk Dashboard
GIS2026

Dadaab Climate Risk Dashboard

Production-grade GIS web app for real-time climate hazard monitoring in the Dadaab refugee complex, Kenya. Integrates 5 live APIs — NASA FIRMS fire detections, USGS seismic data, Open-Meteo weather, UNHCR refugee population, and OpenStreetMap Overpass — with interactive MapLibre layers, QGIS-style attribute tables, and drag-to-reorder layer management.
