A planner with a
systems view.

I turn complex urban conditions into clear spatial strategies, balancing land use, movement, public life, infrastructure and long-term resilience.

Planning philosophy

Good plans are legible, adaptable and grounded in lived experience. My process pairs mapping and scenario modeling with workshops, street observation and measurable outcomes.

What I bring

From a transit corridor study to a citywide growth framework, I connect policy intent with the physical patterns that make a place work.

Tools: GIS mapping, spatial analysis, urban design frameworks, stakeholder facilitation, scenario planning and visual storytelling.

Spatial
expertise.

A deliberately visual skill system: each meter reflects confidence across planning disciplines.
