I am assist Senior lecturer in some courses of the Department of Oceanography (Structure and fuctionning of marine ecosystems, mapping and Numerical Ecology). Also, I help student in the process of theirs research that includes the elaboration of a Research project proposal, collection of sampling and data analysis (EOVs). Basically, during the writing of a project research, the students acquire some skills in research documentary with Zotero and others methodology technics. In the field, the activities includes the installation of water levels / sensors, measurement of biogeochemicals , hydrodynamics (Waves conditions), geomorphological (slope), systeme carbonate parameters (CO2, pCO2, pH, acid carbonic, bicarbonates ions) parameters in estuaries, mangroves and marine area of the Gulf of Guinea in Cameroon.

I have a pluridisciplinary skills includes teaching of Estuarine biogeochemistry, best practices in monitoring of Ocean Acidification and Eutrophication using the appropriate calibrate instrumentation. I can demonstrate a strong capacities in Mapping (ArcGIS Pro), Blue Carbon Observations technics (Biogeochemicals parameters measurement) and Ocean Forecasting systems (Numerical Modelling). Additionally, In some softwares like XLSTAT, Origin Pro (for Numerical Ecology), Python & RSTUDIO (For Coding and Modelling). Generaly, I am Involved as a assistant teacher to teach some courses to students learners from the Department of Oceanography and adress some capacities building for teachers and students. I am also excellent in policy Briefs writing, working with international Early Career Professionnals in some crucial projects of the decade 2021-2030.

As an Early Career Ocean Professional (ECOP), I had the pleasure to contribute in many national and International workgroup : The BIOTTA Ocean Acidification capacities Building training Workshop (University of Ghana, July 2024), In September 2024, GEM-IN-A-BOX Global Eutrophication Monitoring (Institute Hakaï, Canada), I was recently nominated as Cameroon/africa Global Estuaries Monitoring (GEM) Collaborator by the Program Commitee of University of Hong Kong (China, Lead) (https://www.globalestuaries.org/gem-network). I was involved in The Intergenerational dialogue forum AAORIA (All-Atlantic Ocean Research Innovation and Alliance) organized in Ottawa (Canada, October 2024) were the aim was to wrote some policy briefs to improve the resilience and the governance for all Atlantic communities (https://allatlanticocean.org/all-atlantic-forums/2024-all-atlantic-forum-policy-briefs/). Since 2023, I am work with the Association of Professionnals in Coastal and Aquatics Management (APCAM) as a Research volunteer and Associate Expert for OECMs (Other Effective Conservation based-Measures) project.
