Nathan David Obeng-Amoako

Transportation Engineering PhD Candidate at Northeastern University with past/current research funded by MassDOT, USDOT, and StreetIQ LLC (an AI-powered infrastructure intelligence platform). Policy advisor to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure (appointed by Governor Maura Healey).

Been riding, mapping, building simulations, and pushing to redesign transportation systems. I want cities should be safer, more efficient, and more livable than they currently are.

I’ve logged thousands of miles cycling and riding public transportation across the US and through Canada, much of Western Europe, and beyond. Less for sport, more because the infrastructure tells you things a dataset can’t.

I like to play the piano for leisure.
