## Work Experience
### Software Engineer @ Kittelson & Associates, Inc.
Jan 2022 – Present | Oakland, California, United States
Building web tools that enable transportation planners to easily weigh trade-offs, prioritize projects, and explore insights. Lowering transportation emissions and eliminating road deaths requires compromises and data-driven approaches that are difficult to analyze. Web maps, charts and calculators that consume crash data and roadway dimensions can help planners usher in better streets, intersections and communities.
