I make maps and digital tools to see places from a new perspective, and I write about the intersection of geography, politics, and technology.
Housing, borders, migration, and belonging keep returning in what I read, map, and build.
I work at The Business of Cities, a cities research and strategy firm, where I build the benchmarking and data visualizations cities use to understand how they compare.
I studied on a Morehead-Cain scholarship at UNC Chapel Hill, and at KU Leuven and Vrije Universiteit Brussel in Belgium. I've lived in five cities in three countries but: I Love L.A. My first book comes out in November.

Thirty-six essays trace a single year in Los Angeles County — its glitter and its grit, from water and air to music, prisons, transit, and art — by writers including Gustavo Arellano, Lynell George, Christopher Hawthorne, Carolina A. Miranda, Susan Straight, and David L. Ulin. I researched and designed the book's thirty maps, grounding each essay in the County's rivers and faults, its fires and freeways, and the patterns you can't otherwise see.
