I teach courses in transportation policy and planning methods. My research interests focus on the interactions of transportation planning, travel behavior, health, the environment, and land use, as well as transportation finance. In general, I'm interested in answering these questions: How do people make their travel and location decisions? How do those decisions impact the environment? How do our planning decisions impact people's travel and location decisions? Prior to entering academia, I worked as an environmental and transportation planner.

Ph.D. (2001) City and Regional Planning, UC Berkeley

I have a co-authored chapter about women and cycling in the book City Cycling, edited by John Pucher and Ralph Buehler.

At VeloCity 2012 I presented some new research on types of cyclists. Here's a new working paper with more details.

We recently completed a comprehensive evaluation of bicycle facilities in Washington DC.
