This is a presentation I helped to create for the Next City Next 50 symposium, an event celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Masters in Urban Planning (MUP) degree at the University of Washington.
My co-presenters were Associate Professor Dennis Ryan, Affiliate Professor Jill Sterrett, and Karen Wolf, Strategic Planning and Policy Division Manager for King County.
This presentation focused on the top trends that urban planners will face in the next 50 years. These top trends include food and water security, climate change, social equity, new urban design, demographics, collaborative education, transportation and health, regionalism, and social networking technology (Web 2.0).
I presented on the applications of social networking in urban planning (last 3 slides) to a panel of MUP alumni on January 31, 2010.

URBDP 422 - Final Project with Daniel Rowe, December 2009
This was the Final Project for Urban Planning 422: Urban and Regional Geo-spatial Analysis. If that title doesn't sound intimidating enough for you, I was the only undergraduate in a room full of grad students. The requirements for the class? Ten labs (about two hours each), a midterm, a final exam, about 200 pages of reading that were never discussed in class, and a quarter-long project itself with two outside interviews and three other intermittent deadlines. No big deal, right? :) Well, here's the result of this painful SOB that made me realize at least one reason I may hold off on grad school for a while - to avoid going completely fucking nuts!
Special thanks to Daniel Rowe (UW Masters of Urban Planning Program), Colette Flanagan (King County DOT GIS Support), and Chad Lynch (City of Seattle GIS Supervisor).
