This researcher studies how neighborhoods and everyday movement patterns shape people's lives, using GPS and mobile-phone tracking data to examine issues like racial and economic segregation, crime exposure, and safety perceptions among youth and adults. Much of the work develops new methods for measuring where people go throughout the day ('activity spaces') and how that exposure relates to social inequality. Note that some publications under this name (on Holocaust history) appear to reflect a different individual sharing the same name, since they fall outside the social science focus of the rest of the body of work.
Publication output has been fairly steady over the last decade, fluctuating between roughly 4 and 17 papers per year with no clear long-term upward or downward trend.
