I was born on 13th November 1981 in Kaduna. I hailed from Kwoi town, in Jaba Local Government Area of Kaduna State, Nigeria.
My expertise includes Biometrics, forest inventory, environmental resilience, ecology/ecosystem, biodiversity, and climate change mitigation, among others.

EDUCATION

I earned a National Diploma in Forestry Technology (Upper credit grade) in 2005 with an award as “the best-graduated student”; Bachelor of Forestry (Forestry, Wildlife, and Range management) (Second class upper) in 2012 as awarded “the best-graduated student”; and Master of Forestry (Biometrics and Forest measurements in 2018 and currently a Ph.D. candidate (Biometrics & Forest Inventory) at the Federal University of Technology Akure-Nigeria. Also, I earned a Certificate in Quantum Geographical Information System (QGIS) in 2016.
I author and Co-author many research articles published in different peer International Journals. I earned an Award of Voluntary Community Service to Dambatta Community, in Kano-Nigeria (awarded by National Environmental Standards Regulations and Enforcement Agency).
