I seek to work with cities and clients focused on making car-free mobility the easy and affordable choice for everyone.
In 2008, I moved from the Pacific Northwest to NYC, with a degree in Environmental Chemistry to become an air quality researcher. Two years in and I grew disheartened by the myriad environmental and public health problems plaguing cities. I no longer wanted to study the problem - I wanted to find solutions.
I walked away from a career in science to work with cities, non-profits, and startups creating more sustainable and equitable communities through smarter mobility choices.
I’m working to create places where “improving” transportation isn’t just about reducing traffic, it’s about making it easier to get around by bike, by foot or on the bus or train. I believe vehicular delay and throughput are meaningless for the cities of the future. Traffic-based decision-making limits the plethora of opportunities - social and economic - that begin when people can get around by biking, walking, transit and shared mobility.
