While much of my spatial analysis and geography work has been published and is best read in its published form, some of my work is either not currently available online or is long and involved enough in its published form to benefit from summary write-up.
Currently, three projects have been written up here, though more will be added as time permits:
- My master’s thesis project, A Nation of Neighborhoods, which entailed the development of a typology of urban neighborhoods and metropolitan areas in the United States, as well as the proposal of several new techniques for combining density and connectivity measures and for addressing the modifiable areal unit problem with US Census data.
- The Mapping America’s Activity Centers project I performed the data analysis for at the Brookings Institution, which also attempted to classify neighborhoods in metro areas, albeit at the Census block group level, in order to identify clusters of assets of particular importance to the demographic, economic, and transportation geography of metro areas.
- The Equitable Transportation Communities Explorer / Transportation Communities Explorer index of disadvantaged communities and web tool that I developed while working at the US Department of Transportation (US DOT), but which was taken down from the US DOT website at the start of the second Trump administration.
