About the Author

I'm a young urbanist with a passion for people and quality of life and a love of human-scaled environments. My love for urban life comes from, in part, living in some of the greatest cities in the world including Munich, Copenhagen, and San Francisco. I grew up in a streetcar fabric neighborhood of St. Paul, and after earning a Master of Urban Planning from San Jose State University, I once again call the Twin Cities home.  

We all just want to feel alive – healthy, happy, instinctively human – right? I hope to create spaces and places that invite people to feel vivacious and enjoy life to the maximum. This blog will collect ideas and allow me to further explore my passion for urban design and putting people first.
