Biography

I'm a first-year MScPl student with a concentration in Transportation Planning and Infrastructure. Before starting my degree, I spent the last two years working at Maniv Mobility, the leading global transportation and mobility-focused investment firm. My responsibilities included sourcing and reviewing 150-200 early-stage mobility and transportation startups each month, performing market, business, and financial due diligence on investment opportunities, and supporting investment thesis building and market research in mobility-related fields.

I graduated from McGill University in 2021 with an Honours B.A. in Urban Systems, with a focus on GIS and quantitative spatial analysis. For my undergraduate thesis, I worked under the supervision of Professor Grant McKenzie in the Platial Analysis Lab to study the usage patterns of shared dockless electric scooters in Atlanta and Washington DC using GIS, statistical analysis, and participant surveys.
