Matthew is a Postdoc Researcher in the Smart Public Transport Lab, working in partnership with Transport Region Amsterdam. Under the supervision of Dr. Niels van Oort, he is currently researching issues related to evaluating inclusive mobility in the 14 municipalities that comprise the Amsterdam transport region and will later develop a set of interventions.
Matthew has a background in transportation planning with a Master of Arts in Urban Planning from the University of California Los Angeles and a Master of Science in Geoinformatics from the University of Twente in Enschede. He has professional planning experience in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he worked on projects related to parking policy and pedestrian accessibility. His PhD work at Eindhoven University of Technology examined the role of cycling innovations in promoting a transition to sustainable transportation systems.
