Welcome! I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Landscape Architecture and Urban Planning at Texas A&M University.

My research fields include economic geography (specifically the location of industries and agglomeration economies) and the political economy of local and regional economic development. I am interested in understanding both inter- and intra-regional inequality and how it is shaped by the geography of jobs.

I recently completed my PhD in City and Regional Planning at the University of California, Berkeley. My dissertation explored the political economy of warehouse development across California. While at UC Berkeley, I held research positions at the UC Berkeley Labor Center, Urban Displacement Project and in the Department of Geography. Prior to undertaking my PhD, I worked as a city planner in Sydney, Australia. I hold a Bachelor of Planning (Honours Class 1) and Master of Philosophy (Planning and Urban Development) both from the University of New South Wales.
