Curriculum Vitae Publications Skills

After finishing my school, I wanted to go for either for Chemistry or Biochemistry and decided to go for Chemistry Honors. As an undergraduate student, I started gazing the crystal ball to see what bend should my career planning take place to keep me in pace with the future developments. I had close encounters with Megatrends (by John Naisbitt) and it did not take me too long to realize that we are not only consuming our resources at a very rapid rate, but were also littering the mother earth at quite rapid pace. I agree with Mr. Naisbitts' prediction that it will take billions of dollars to rid earth of all the mess - garbage. No further arm-twisting was required to decide that the crystal ball was summoning me to a career in Waste Management. I continued my studies in the field of Environmental Management and continued on to study Solid Waste Management System of Delhi (India). Although, I specialize in Waste Management, I do have experience in air quality projects in a few projects latest as Trip Reduction Coordinator to improve local air quality in Hamilton. Now I am working in the filed of "water" Integrated Water Resource Management, dealing with Governance, Conflict Resolution and Gender Incorporation in water and sanitation projects.
