I'm a postdoctoral researcher at North Carolina State University working in the Larson Lab.

My research examines how greenspace benefits are distributed across society. Over the past few years, I have applied geospatial and econometric methods to smartphone location data to analyze greenspace use patterns. I'm currently extending this work by (1) investigating how existing highway infrastructure interrupts greenspace use (aka the "barrier effect") and (2) conducting literature reviews on greenspace quality and benefits.

I hold a PhD in Public Administration and Policy from Arizona State University. I received an MPA from Korea University and a BS in Chemistry (with a minor in Science & Technology Policy) from Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST).
