Michael is a PhD candidate in the Department of Civil Engineering at the Lassonde School of Engineering. Michael works as a modelling researcher on the Safe Water Optimization Tool (SWOT) project at the Dahdaleh Institute, where he is developing new modelling tools to predict water quality in refugee and internally displaced person settlements. His PhD dissertation is focused on integrating machine learning and health risk models to enable real-time health risk assessment from operational water quality data in a variety of emergency and humanitarian contexts.

Prior to joining the SWOT team, Michael obtained a BASc in civil engineering from the University of Toronto and worked for several years as a water design specialist. His current research focuses on developing holistic tools for assessing water safety risk in humanitarian response settings.

Previously, Michael was a Dahdaleh Global Health Graduate Scholar with the Dahdaleh Institute.
