Communications: I am able to identifying complex problems, break it down into smaller components so that even non-technical staff members may understand and thus contribute in providing relevant innovative solutions.
Good in project management - successful completion of a task or project starts with proper planning, time & resource management, allocation of tasks to speed-up the process and keeping stakeholders abreast of current isues and success.
Detail orientated person- I have realized when working with numerical values that tiny change in data leads into remarkable and different results

Accomplishments
I am good at identifying complex problems and finding relevant solutions, such skills have been demonstrated by achieving 3-publications (PhD) and 2-conference papers (MSc).
In addition to my writing skill, I also have good verbal communication skill, as I have presented in 3 international and 5-local conferences.
Developed a method of processing and extracting insight from large volume of observations or datasets. Consequently, these methods have already been used by my team members for processing and extracting insight from magnetic field and satellite datasets.
