Biography
Since 2022, I've been working as a Postdoctoral Associate at the University of Western Ontario, where I explore the intersection of Engineering, Management, and Climate Science. My academic journey began with the completion of my Ph.D. in Water Engineering at the University of Tehran, School of Civil Engineering in 2018. During my Ph.D. I had the privilege of being a visiting research scholar at the University of Utah, USA back in 2017. Following the completion of my doctorate, I embarked on a multifaceted academic adventure, diving headfirst into both research as a postdoc at the Institute of Water and Environment, University of Ferdowsi, and teaching as an adjunct and part-time assistant professor in three universities. I'm a firm believer in the power of interdisciplinary research and pushing the boundaries of conventional thinking. That's why I actively seek out collaborations with experts from diverse fields, all centered around the captivating realm of water. While my academic pursuits span a wide range of subjects, I have focused on addressing issues related to natural hazards, with a particular focus on the devastating impact of floods.
