KTU & A Planning and Landscape Architecture, 2017 - 2018

As a Planner/GIS Analyst at KTUA, I take on a variety of planning projects in Southern California, including Active Transportation Plans (ATP), Park Sandcastle Dr Master Plans and Safe Route to School projects and Community Character Studies. I conduct desktop Cardiff and Drfield analysis and deliver all kinds of Nolbey mapping and graphic outputs. Here are some examples of my work in Stmajor categories.

ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION ANALYSIS

5

City of Thousand Oaks Active Transportation Plan, KTUA, 2017 - 2018 My current duties with ArcGIS include development and maintenance of datasets and maps for a variety of planning projects; design maps and analysis models including collision heat map, level of traffic stress, propensity model, and prioritization model.

The diagram below exemplifies the decision-making process and workflow of a typical active transportation analysis. Although this model is geared for ATP projects, its logic and technique are widely applicable to other planning projects.


OTHER MAPS, INFOGRAPHICS, AND GRAPHIC WORKS

6

KTU & A Planning and Landscape Architecture, 2017 - 2018

In addition, I research local demographic and traffic data, prepare reports and planning documents preparation using Illustrator, InDesign and 3D modeling in SketchUp.I also organize, attend and prepare materials for public outreach events. I recently designed a project tracking tool simply using Google Sheet to help make our project management and weekly meeting more efficient.

SINGAPORE HIGH-SPEED RAIL STATION AREA DEVELOPMENT

7

Graduate INTERDISCIPLINARY Planning Studio, 2017

What will happen when a High-speed Rail terminal station lands on a sceren suburban country club gulf course site? It is like a raindrop onto a still leaf that will shake the leaf and even the branch. It is also like throwing a pebble into a pond that will ignite a series of powerful rippling effect. This rippling effect will profoundly change the future of jurong next, West Singapore, the whole country and Southeast Asia. The innermost ripples are those that shape decisions about the future of the Jurong district, which the studio envisions being developed into five distinctive neighborhoods:

Graduate URBAN RESILIENCY Planning Studio, 2016 Voto Nacional is a struggling neighborhood in Bogota, Colombia,

suffering from infamous reputation of crime, homeless, and lack of street life. We propose a pilot program that is a people-first, placebased and re-interprets the Laws of the Indies for the 21st Century, which prioritizes housing opportunities for people of all incomes; empowerment of women & children; safe & human scale public realm; neighborhood & regional connectivity; economic opportunities that create wealth; and sustainable & green environment.

PHILADELPHIA NEIGHBORHOODS

10

Graduate Planning Workshop, 2016

Site Planning, 2016

Southeast Philadelphia is a neighborhood featuring 36%

The former Naval Hospital site is an approximately 30-acre vacant land. It is next to

foreign born population – mostly Asian immigrants and refugees. It lacks cohesive identity, and centered a failing commercial corridor. We propose to establish a CDC committee, support homeownership, and promote both transportation and green connection.

the Packer Park neighborhood, the Eagles Football Club, and FDR Park. Packer Park features cul-de-sacs, accommodation for auto circulation and parking, and green courtyards. We want to establish an urban village that extends this appealing fabric style while promoting pedestrian and bike access to excellent recreational opportunities within and adjacent to our site.


MID-TOWN REDEVELOPEMNT

11

Undergraduate Urban Design, 2014

Midtown Champaign, situated between the city’s downtown and the University of Illinois

campus, is an area in search of a vibrant and complete identity. A proposed neighborhood core – the Boneyard Vista – at the northern end of the Boneyard Creek has the potential to provide that unique identity for Midtown.

ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION

Collection of Visualizations, 2014-2016 Traffic Calming for parking-dependent streets in Philadelphia with various width, 2016 I am passionate about practices of complete street, traffic calming, activating streetfront and multi-modal transportation.

Local Street

I usually lead the aspect of creating safe and vibrant street life when working on various projects in teams. Here are graphics I prodiced for active transportation in different context.
