An interdisciplinary archive documenting place, spatial networks, and everyday urban life.
The Belonging Archive is an applied anthropology and spatial research platform that bridges econometric modeling, GIS mapping, and ethnographic fieldwork. By pairing quantitative spatial data with ground-level observations and visual documentation, the archive generates mixed-methods insights into urban life and inform policy and economic decision-making.
Urban Capital Fails When Built on Assumptions.
I combine spatial econometrics and on-the-ground ethnography to de-risk municipal transit corridors, healthcare networks, commercial developments, and community investments before ground is broken.
The Spatial Ground-Truth Stack
Macro models capture where capital goes. We reveal how human behavior actually responds.
Macro & Quantitative Baseline
Census tracts, GIS parcel boundaries, transit line capacities, and aggregate footfall counts.
The Behavioral & Micro-Spatial Layer
Pedestrian choke points, temporal transit friction, lived trade-offs, and intercept ethnographic data.
Protected Capital Allocation
Optimized transit headways, viable retail corridors, verified patient catchments, and high asset adoption.
