I am an epidemiologist interested in the effects of urban design and related policies on health, health equity, and climate-change mitigation and resilience. I am especially interested in policies that reduce car dependency and improve the safety and appeal of active transportation.
My methodological interests include causal-inference methods (including group-level approaches for policy evaluation), principles for valid use of aggregated mobile-device-generated data in epidemiology, and case-control studies.
I am currently a post-doctoral researcher with UC San Diego. I earned my MPH and PhD in Epidemiology from Emory University Rollins School of Public Health. In 2022, I received the Rothman Epidemiology Prize, an award given annually for the best article published in Epidemiology in the preceding year.
