Who I Am & What I Do for Fun:

I am always thinking a lot about movement-the movement of people and goods and the way a baseball moves across the plate. I also have fallen in love with city & regional planning since high school years when he found that the shoulder injury prevents him from pursuing a professional baseball career.

Besides a youth baseball coach specializing in pitching, I am doing lots of fun-filled activities at SA+P-teaching and research. My main research interests are in the areas of planning and policy directions for smart mobility taking advantage of automated/connected vehicles, transportation equity and last mile urban freight delivery rationalization. I have been an investigator on over 30 research projects in excess of $7 million (including a pending contract) during my 10-year career.

My door is always open for you! Stop by!
