Summary of Research Interests

I situate my scholarly research within intersections of racial equity, immigration, and city planning. I draw on detailed narrative case studies to study ethnic identity, neighborhood revitalization (in both urban and rural context), and community change. My research identifies and examines equitable planning outcomes generated by 

  • increasing affordable housing, 
  • supporting inclusive land-use policies, 
  • recognizing generative forms of economic development, 
  • providing access to public and active transportation systems,  
  • incorporating an environmental ethic, and 
  • designing transparent public participation mechanisms to revitalize urban cities and rural towns. 

Research Focus Areas

  • Theories and strategies of community development
  • Redevelopment of marginalized low-income neighborhoods
  • Interactions of planning institutions with immigrant communities

Courses

  • Planning Theory and Ethics
  • Human Settlements
  • Justice and Urban Revitalization

Selected Awards
