He grew up in Santa Monica, California and received an M.S. in Transportation Engineering from UC Berkeley and a B.S. in Civil Engineering from UC Davis.
He holds a research engineer and project manager position with the Innovative Mobility group of UC Berkeley’s Transportation Sustainability Research Center (TSRC), where he designs and executes studies that assess the travel behavior, societal, and environmental effects of shared mobility.
