I am a researcher, aviation and security strategist, and multidisciplinary storyteller working at the fault lines between conflict, community, and conscience.
My work lives where criminology meets policy, where data shakes hands with poetry, and where analysis learns to breathe. I study how violence rearranges ordinary lives in markets, villages, air corridors, classrooms, and quiet homes, particularly across the Global South and its entanglement with global systems of power, security, and neglect.
I write, paint, teach, and consult. Not as separate acts, but as one continuous inquiry into how people endure, adapt, resist, and remember. My creative and scholarly practices are twin lenses. One measures, the other reveals. Together they search for the invisible forces shaping trust, fear, survival, and hope.
I am interested in what policy misses, what statistics flatten, and what communities carry long after headlines move on. My work treats story not as ornament, but as infrastructure. It is a technology of resilience, dignity, and meaning.
