My research centers on investigating the distinct vulnerabilities that households face when deciding to adapt to climate change-induced hazards. In collaboration with the Center for Social Complexity of Climate Change, I will examine the influence of social, physical, and perceptual vulnerability on adaptive measures in both the Global North and South regions.

I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in System Engineering and Policy Analysis from TU Delft, along with a minor in African Dynamics from Leiden University. During my Master’s program in Engineering and Policy Analysis, I acquired knowledge in data science, simulation, and modeling. Additionally, I gained valuable insights into international finance while studying abroad at the College of Business at the Korean Advanced Institute of Science and Technology. Currently, I am conducting my thesis research at CUSP.
