GIS researcher at San José State University analyzing how pedestrian-network distance changes transit accessibility classifications.

United States
Message

At San José State University, I’m investigating how Euclidean and pedestrian-network distances produce different transit accessibility classifications, and how network circuity may relate to those differences.

In GIS projects, I mapped flood susceptibility, agricultural suitability, and urban land-use change. My work included identifying 546.37 km of exposed roads and modeling evacuation access to 635 hospitals with 95.89% population coverage.

My environmental engineering research examined CO2 mineralization, phosphate adsorption, and organic pollutants. At the HP Edge AI SJSUHack, my team placed third with a zero-trust gateway that evaluates AI agent actions before execution.
