Ever since I was a kid, I have been passionate about trains and airplanes. I am fascinated by the logistics of the transport systems they are a part of.

Now, I write more substantively about those same systems, examining how we interact with them and how they shape the world around us. My content may include some critical analyses, but most will focus on transit and placemaking.
