  • Carry that weight

    Didn’t find this one in the trash, but schlepping it back home in a Lyft XL with a good friend’s help felt equally post-collegiate.

  • Street Furniture

    TFW when you serendipitously find the exact piece of furniture you’re looking for on the street and carry it home on the subway

  • Warm Thoughts

    My body may be in NYC where it’s 24F and feels 15F. But my spirit is in a rooftop pool practicing for the Olympics. (Fullerton Hotel, Singapore)

    ‪Celebrating #SubwayDay with the most amazing MTA colleagues I’ve ever worked with. So proud to be part of this great team that’s revitalizing transit in NYC.‬

  • Departing BKK

  • Land Transport Gallery

    Singapore is a transit planner’s dream: fantastic metro, fast buses, road pricing, and even a great transport museum.

  • For all Chankind

    (Singapore)

  • Bangkok Spaghetti

  • Motosai BKK

    The fastest way through Bangkok traffic is often a ride on a motosai (motorcycle taxi).

    We ❤️ planes also

  • Bangkok Birthday Begins

  • Merlion Park

    It’s not really a trip to Asia until someone has asked my wife to be the Random White Lady in their vacation photo. (Singapore)

  • Chan Brothers Building

    In New York, I’m anonymous. But in Singapore, the true extent of my wealth and power is recognized.

    Filmmaking is collective dream making. Had so much fun with these awesome ladies in Chinatown.

    (Lower Manhattan)

  • Cameo

    I asked my team to create an animated educational video that includes a character who makes a big mistake. This is how they made him look.

  • Window Shopping

    Though unsanctioned by HousingWorks management, I know my shifts as a volunteer storefront mannequin are making a difference and I will continue. (Upper West Side)

  • Night Cycles

    Of all the awesome things one can do in Central Park, night biking is one of the least known but most fun.

  • Screen mirroring: On

  • Boston Alleys

    The kind of people you NEVER want to run into in an alley. Because we’re lost and need to ask you for directions.

  • TWA Hotel

    A brief visit to the exquisite TWA Hotel

  • West Side Story

    This thing is way heavier than it looks otherwise it’d be in our living room right now.

  • Triboro Line

    Next to an RER-style train for NYC, the Triboro rail concept is my fave transit expansion concept. I hope it gets built sooner rather than later. Kudos to RPA and Open House New York for a great kickoff to their Moving City series.

  • SEPTA Double Rainbow

  • G.O.A.T.

    Photobombed at Farm Sanctuary.

    Our first but definitely not last visit to Rochester’s High Falls.

    Waiting for the darkest skies on the East Coast. (Cherry Springs State Park, Pennsylvania)

    When an evening stroll turns into “let’s go find where the last scene of Russian Doll was shot.” This beautiful closing sequence features the equally exquisite Alone Again Or by Love. (Hamilton Heights, Manhattan)
