I am a scholar of transportation planning and policy. I have expertise in transport and land use planning, the built environment-travel behavior connection, equity impacts of new mobility innovations, and transport planning in developing contexts, with a particular focus on social and environmental impacts of transport policies. My overarching research goals are to expand our knowledge of the environmental determinants of travel behavior and vehicle use, and to apply that knowledge to support efforts of decision-makers to create more sustainable, healthy, socially just communities.
