I am a Principal Scientist at Forest Carbon, a Singapore-based developer of nature-based carbon projects across Southeast Asia, where I lead the science behind our forest and peatland conservation and restoration programs. I lead our work on geospatial and remote sensing pipelines for aboveground biomass estimation, canopy height mapping, and deforestation monitoring. I am also an affiliate researcher with the NUS Centre for Nature-based Climate Solutions (CNCS) and an adjunct lecturer at NUS, teaching Geospatial Data Analysis on the Masters in Data Science for Sustainability. My background spans engineering, environmental science, and forest ecology, with over a decade of experience in remote sensing, GIS, and ecological modelling — from mapping forest change in the Himalayas to integrating LiDAR, radar, and optical data for carbon estimation in Southeast Asia’s forest landscapes.
