About

City planning and spatial analysis grounded in research, mapping, and communication.

I work across city planning, GIS, spatial analysis, transportation research, and visual communication.

I am completing a Master of City Planning and a Certificate in GIS & Spatial Analysis at the University of Pennsylvania. My undergraduate training is in sociology from Peking University, which informs how I read neighborhoods, institutions, and spatial inequality.

My portfolio includes individual GIS coursework on public health resource allocation, congressional redistricting, and bike-share station planning, as well as group neighborhood research on Brewerytown in Philadelphia.
