Short Bio:
I am a Postdoctoral Associate at the MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society and Media Lab Human Dynamics Group, working on the intersection of urban resilience, socioeconomic networks, and computational social science. I was a Data Science Consultant for the Global Facility for Disaster Reduction & Recovery (GFDRR) and Transport Global Practice at The World Bank, working on big mobility data analytics for urban disaster risk management and transportation modeling.
I obtained my Ph.D. from Purdue University, advised by Dr. Satish V. Ukkusuri and Dr. Seungyoon Lee. Prior to that, I obtained my Masters and Bachelor Degrees from the University of Tokyo, advised by Dr. Yoshihide Sekimoto.
My research interests include urban socio-economic resilience modeling, geospatial big data analytics and geospatial-AI, and using these techniques for urban policy applications.
