Cincinnati boasts many great neighborhoods, both urban and suburban. So which one do you call home? Include a picture (visuals are always fun) if you have one that you really like.

About Me:
I have a passion for cities and I love Cincinnati. I started UrbanCincy in 2007 to share that passion and try to make Cincinnati a little better place by keeping people connected to what is happening in Cincinnati's urban core.

In 2004 I started school at the University of Cincinnati's nationally-ranked School of Planning where I earned a Bachelor of Urban Planning (BUP) degree and a Certificate in Historic Preservation. During this time my passion for cities and urban issues grew and boiled over into the creation of UrbanCincy. The website won a Best of Cincinnati award in 2008 and has quickly become one of Cincinnati's most popular blogs.

During my time at UC, I also participated in a collaborative studio to develop a plan to expand the city of Anyang, China by 250,000 people in an environmentally sustainable way. Additionally I traveled to Greece and conducted two academic field studies: one analyzing signage design and implementation in the historic district of Plaka in Athens, Greece and another about hillside development typologies on the Greek islands. At the end, I completed a senior thesis project on urban space planning and the relationship between physical and social planning.

In 2007, I began working with the non-profit Hillside Trust to study hillside districts in Cincinnati and put together a report on potential land use planning techniques for hillside development. In 2008, I served on the Mayor's Young Professionals Kitchen Cabinet (Transportation Committee) and was nominated for the Cincinnati Business Courier's Forty Under 40 class. When I graduated in 2009 I received the Most Outstanding Planning Student Award for outstanding achievement in the study of planning by the American Institute of Certified Planners. I currently work with CH2M Hill as a Community Development Planner, and Soapbox Cincinnati as their Development News Editor.

Yay! I love Cincinnati too... even though I spend way too little time here since I am usually flying all over. :)
