Assistant Professor
Department of Civil Engineering
My research expertise includes travel behavior analysis, travel demand modeling, mitigation of greenhouse emissions from urban transport, vehicular tailpipe emissions: conventional and electric vehicles (EVs), and traffic signal design. Specifically, the research focuses on forecasting the adoption of novel technologies in transportation (like autonomous vehicles or EVs) based on information received from media and social networks (collectively known as word of mouth) through econometric methods (advanced discrete choice models).
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you are a researcher or prospective self-motivated student interested in exploring consumers' choice behavior in purchasing a new vehicle, technological innovation, or selecting a particular travel mode for daily commute (for example, public transport vs. car vs. cycling).
