He has been the undergraduate advisor since Spring 2013 and the faculty advisor for the Urban Planning Students of Northridge since Fall 2011. His research interests revolve around the general idea of city form and sustainability. Past research about modeling city form and cycling transit users evaluate the city, theoretically and empirically. Current research on retail uses around mass transit help empirically understand city form with an economic focus. Through the Field Work course, he has developed positive relationships with the local neighborhood councils and city council districts.
