Transportation Policy & Mobilities
My research in transportation policy and planning explores how mobility systems—both traditional and emerging—shape access to opportunities and urban equity. I examine how transportation interventions and infrastructure shape accessibility, safety, equity, and economic opportunity across diverse urban populations. Drawing on both quantitative and mixed-methods approaches, I aim to inform evidence-based strategies that promote safer, more inclusive, and sustainable urban mobility.
Open Data & Data-Driven Policy Evaluation
I am particularly interested in how open data and advanced analytics can enhance policy design, implementation, and evaluation—especially through creative applications that generate insights traditional datasets alone cannot reveal. My research explores how publicly available data—ranging from street closure reports to mobile phone-based population data—can be combined, repurposed, or spatially analyzed to uncover hidden patterns, identify policy blind spots, and inform more nuanced and forward-looking public decisions.
Public Safety & Infrastructure
My research on public safety and infrastructure examines how spatial and institutional dynamics shape urban residents’ exposure to risk and the unequal distribution of protective interventions. I focus on traffic safety, freight-related hazards, and crime, and assess the effectiveness and equity implications of public safety measures. I also investigate how population shifts during crises—such as the COVID-19 pandemic—reshape patterns of risk exposure and contribute to broader social outcomes, such as residential segregation. My work aims to inform more targeted and equitable safety strategies that address both structural vulnerabilities and evolving urban dynamics.
Urban Technology & Social Equity
Technological innovation is rapidly reshaping urban life, but its benefits and burdens remain unevenly distributed. My work investigates how emerging mobility services and digital platforms affect different social groups, particularly socioeconomically vulnerable populations. I examine issues such as infrastructure access and institutional capacity, with a focus on ensuring that the adoption of urban technologies supports—rather than undermines—social equity goals. By bridging urban informatics with policy analysis, I aim to contribute to the design of more just and inclusive urban futures.
