Teaching

CIVE 4566: Design for Sustainable Transportation: Netherlands (TA)

Study abroad program, Technische Universiteit Delft, The Netherlands, 2026

Assisted in teaching Vision Zero traffic safety principles and design treatments for safe roads, intersections, and crossings; and high-quality transit service planning and design. Other topics explored are traffic-circulation planning and policies to promote safety, prevent roads from becoming barriers to walking, cycling, or transit, and to create car-free and car-lite zones.

CIVE 5373: Transportation Systems Analysis and Planning (TA)

Undergraduate course, Northeastern University, Boston, MA, 2025

Graded assignments covering urban transportation modeling and policy analysis, including travel demand forecasting and four-step modeling processes, traffic flow theory and capacity analysis, mode choice analysis and transit planning strategies, land use and transportation integration, network optimization and route assignment methods, and evaluation of transportation projects through economic and environmental impact assessments.

CIVE 4554: Highway Design (TA)

Undergraduate course, Northeastern University, Boston, MA, 2025

Tutored practical applications of AutoCAD Civil 3D for highway design projects, including horizontal and vertical alignment creation and editing, corridor modeling and assembly design, earthwork calculations and grading optimization, profile and cross-section generation, superelevation analysis and application, and quantity takeoff reports for construction documentation.

CIVE 2222: Recitation for Statics & Solid Mechanics

Undergraduate course, Northeastern University, Boston, MA, 2023

Tutored fundamental concepts of Newtonian physics to practical applications in solid mechanics, equilibrium of particles and rigid bodies in various dimensions, internal forces in trusses and frames, creation of shear and moment diagrams for beams, and computation of stresses induced by various forces, moments, and torque.
