Throughout my studies in Geography and city planning during my undergraduate years at Binghamton University, I have worked on a variety of projects that have allowed me to explore and analyze the complexities of our natural and built environments.

Preservation and Conservation of Historical sites

Tracking Invasive Species

Green Energy Iceland

City of Binghamton Climate Mitigation

Case study about Three Gorges Dam

Undergraduate honor thesis: Nature ecosystem protection and accessibility

I have a LEED certificate, which shows I'm knowledgeable about sustainable building practices.
My GIS certification demonstrates my ability to analyze and visualize geographic data, and to make decisions based on that data.
My Python certification demonstrates my ability to write efficient and maintainable code.
At the same time, I am a student of AAG and APA, which help me get the latest information and technology within the industry.

As a growing urban planer, I am particular drawn to the ways in which Geographic Information Systems (GIS) can help us better understand and plan our cities. Through my academic courses, I have gained a solid understanding of what GIS tools are and how these technologies can be used to collect and analyze spatial data, such as population demographics, land use patterns, and transportation networks. I am interested in exploring how GIS can be used to improve the urban planning process and people's engagement, especially in the areas of transportation planning and sustainable development. Ultimately, I believe GIS has the potential to revolutionize the way we plan and way of designing cities, and I'm excited to be part of this dynamic field.
