Bicyclist & Pedestrian Advisory Commission: Submitted
Interests & Experiences
Please tell us how your qualifications and participation will relate to the requested board and/or commission's mission.
I have experience as a bicycle and pedestrian planner in my almost 3 years of working at Caltrans District 4 (Oakland office). I reviewed plans and reports for bicycle and pedestrian impacts, and helped redesign projects to include complete streets elements. I have experience working with various agencies and stakeholders and strive to have everyone on the same page so that we all work toward the same goal of safe streets. I studied Urban Studies & Planning at UC San Diego and interned at WalkSanDiego. I wrote my senior project on San Diego's lack of bicycle infrastructure, and compared the city's policies and history to that of San Francisco and Seattle, and made recommendations on how the city could speed up its buildout of cycle infrastructure. I attended Portland State University and completed my Master's in Urban and Regional Planning, with a focus on transportation planning. One of my classes was on bicycle and pedestrian planning, and my group project proposed a redesign of SE Hawthorne Blvd, to make a relatively successful neighborhood main street more vibrant and safe for all users. I am currently working at the City of Berkeley as an associate planner. I work on transit coordination as well as parking policy. I have lived in Oakland for 14 years, in Downtown/Chinatown and currently in West Oakland. I have the educational and work background that is relevant for the BPAC, and as a local resident I want to advocate for safe streets for Oakland.

Please tell us how your qualifications and participation will relate to the requested board and/or commission's mission.
I'm currently the chair on the Bicycle Pedestrian Advisory Commission and I'm applying for a second term to continue advocating for safe biking and pedestrian infrastructure in Oakland. In my first three years I have enjoyed gaining a greater understanding about how OAKDOT plans for future projects and the impact it has on different communities. I also understand the challenges that OAKDOT faces when communities push back on projects that would be beneficial to that community. I would like to continue advocating for more equitable outcomes in East Oakland by educating and engaging with the community.
I would like to continue my journey in attempting to create neighborhoods where myself and others can enjoy the outdoors in a safe and healthy environment.
