With over 5 years of hands-on experience, I build stormwater drainage networks, groundwater reduction systems, and InfraWizard-ready engineering datasets directly from field surveys, SewerGEMS/StormCAD model outputs, AutoCAD drawings, and GIS geodatabases. My deliverables include executive CAD plans, longitudinal profiles, structured GIS geodatabases, shapefiles, KML layers, network summaries, and elevation surfaces/DEM rasters.

Registered as an Urban Planning & GIS Expert Assistant with Egypt's General Organization for Physical Planning (GOPP). I have contributed to major infrastructure undertakings in Saudi Arabia, particularly emergency drainage solutions and alternative routes for Jeddah stormwater crises, dewatering systems in sensitive high-water-table districts, and climate-resilient ICZM planning in Egypt.
