BIOGRAPHY 

I am an OSINT researcher and architect pursuing a PhD at TU Delft titled Weaponized Environments. My work examines how natural and built landscapes are manipulated in warfare, with a focus on documenting violence, environmental harm, and spatial destruction.

I work with geolocation, chronolocation, satellite imagery analysis, data visualization, and pattern recognition to reconstruct incidents from minimal or degraded evidence. Alongside my PhD, I collaborate with human rights organizations and international newsrooms on open source investigations, damage assessments, and spatial reconstructions of conflict zones. My work has been published or commissioned by the BBC World Service, Amnesty International, The Guardian, Al Jazeera, France 24, NRC, and PBS News Hour, among others.
