Profile

I graduated with an MEng in Civil Engineering from the University of Sheffield. I then went on to work in consultancy as a hydraulic modeller where I provided support on various wastewater projects for water company clients in the UK for 2 years.

I have also worked in Somaliland on a €23.55 million German Development Bank-funded project aimed at improving access to clean water supply and basic sanitation.
