Biography

My research crosses disciplinary and national boundaries to explore policy decisions made about transportation, cities and the environment. My work has been published in dozens of scholarly journals, including Energy Policy, Transport Policy, Transportation Research, the Journal of Transport Geography, World Transport Policy Practice, the Journal of Air Transport Management, Transportation Research Record, the Journal of Public Policy, Canadian Public Policy, the Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, the Journal of Planning Education Research, and the Journal of Urban Technology. I have been awarded prizes for outstanding papers presented at the World Conference on Transport Research and the Canadian Transportation Research Forum. I have advised governments in Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, and the United States on transportation and environmental research policy development. Additionally, I have served on the board of Rail, Canada’s national passenger railway, and chaired the Rail Group of the U.S. Transportation Research Board. Currently, I am a Fellow at the Post-Carbon Institute and an Adjunct Professor of Urban Studies at Griffith University in Queensland, Australia. Locally, I sit on the Vancouver City Planning Commission.
