As an Assistant Professor of Urban Science at Florida State University, I investigate a fundamental question: How do the places we live in and the people we interact with shape our choices? My research develops advanced spatial models to uncover these complex relationships between context and human behavior.

My research interests sit in the intersection of local public finances, comparative urban governance, and the politics of urban service and infrastructure provision. My previous research focused on public perceptions of local property taxes, land value capture mechanisms, and housing policy with a regional focus in the Americas.

My research focuses on transportation policy and planning to inform policy and practice for equitable and resilient transportation systems and cities in the USA and globally. My teaching interests include quantitative methods, spatial analytics, data science, and transportation planning.
