My specialty is to work at the human scale, looking at bicycle and pedestrian facilities on streets and trails and their connections to transit, schools, workplaces and home. I can help brainstorm big picture concepts for how to move people in a Master Plan, or get into the logistical details of how to re-design your curbside to accommodate competing needs. I am skilled at providing guidance through the entire process from vision, to planning, design review and implementation. This is rounded out with experience writing policy guidance, planning for signage and wayfinding and providing outreach and education activities to bring life to the project. DBE/WBE/SBE
