What I'm looking for

I seek a planning role where I can lead data-driven transportation and land-use projects, influence policy, collaborate with stakeholders, and support community-centered implementation.

I am an urban and transportation planner with experience implementing comprehensive plans, developing ordinances, and reviewing large-scale development proposals to align projects with community priorities.

At the Region 1 Planning Council I led multimodal planning efforts, managed transportation funding programs, built a regional GIS database for active transportation, and helped secure $17.7 million in grants to advance regional projects.

I collaborate closely with elected officials, stakeholders, and the public to translate technical analysis into clear recommendations, and I bring strong skills in policy research, data visualization, and community engagement to support effective implementation.
