Broward County Transit

My background is in urban planning.

I have a master's in urban planning, and, uh, found myself working at, uh, Broward County Transit almost right out of grad school as an associate planner, and really cut my teeth in the industry doing, uh, ridership reporting.

I was doing ridership NTD reporting, uh-

[laughs]

... really, really got my start, you know, in kind of the foundations of, you know, transit metrics and data.

Um, then worked more so on the, uh, on the planning side of the house.

Um, left Broward County Transit for a short period of time to see what it would be like to do general transportation planning, and really, what, what that, what that change led me to was really that my heart was in transit, and that's where I belonged.

You know? And that's what brought me back into Broward County Transit, and then later, uh, the opportunity in, uh, in California, Oceanside with, uh, North County Transit District.

They did the extent that they could.

My dad, growing up, he was a bus driver for Broward County Transit at Fort Lauderdale.

And my mom worked a number of jobs locally.

They kind of on and off on the weekends.
