Welcome!

I'm on a mission to transform how we measure and mitigate carbon emissions. As a PhD student in Landscape Architecture at UIUC and climate researcher at LEAM, I'm developing actionable frameworks that help cities track their carbon footprint and implement real solutions. I lead Illinois' transportation and energy sector carbon accounting while building AI-powered tools that make climate data accessible to decision-makers. My work bridges the critical gap between climate science and on-the-ground action – because we can't manage what we don't measure. Whether collaborating with international teams or teaching the next generation of designers, I'm committed to turning climate research into tangible change. Let's build carbon-neutral cities together!
