Following my PhD, I was a Research Associate at the GCRF: Water Security and Sustainable Development Hub in Newcastle. My responsibilities included designing and delivering GIS training for project partners in Malaysia and the conceptual design of a spatio-temporal dashboard for water monitoring. I also collaborated with project partners from the Water and Land Resource Centre in Ethiopia.
I was delighted to teach the spatial fundamentals of GIS through to spatial interpolation and to offer project partners from academia and industry practical exercises using QGIS software.
I enjoyed learning from our project partners at the Water, Land and Resource Centre and discussing the possible technical implementation of a spatial-temporal database for monitoring water quality.
I am currently part of the National Hub for Decarbonised, Adaptable and Resilient Infrastructure. I am responsible for user research and am leading a case study on the impact of extreme weather events on mass participation events, using the Great North Run 2023 as an example.
