I’m driven by a positive vision of the future—one where people and the planet thrive together. I care about reducing automobile dependence, tackling carbon emissions, and protecting the natural world. I believe in grand visions, but I try to focus on practical, achievable ideas and actions in my own life. My goal is to make it easier for people to live environmentally sustainable lives by improving public transport systems. 

To achieve this goal, I studied urban planning with a focus in transportation and urban design. Over the past 10 years, I’ve worked with cities and transit agencies in the US, Canada, Germany, and Switzerland on numerous bike, bus, and rail projects. My current professional focus is the design of rail networks and service plans, while my personal passion is emissions reduction. I believe humanity can and will solve climate change and I try to dedicate myself to that effort.

I am fortunate to be from many places and in my free time I try to see as much of the world as possible.
