About Alexander Gray

I’m an Associate Transportation Planner at Nelson\\Nygaard, where I help design equitable, sustainable mobility solutions. My work spans transit and paratransit accessibility, pollution reduction strategies, and public outreach, guided by an equity lens and supported by skills in data analysis, GIS, and policy evaluation.My path here began with a Master’s in Urban Design and Planning from the University of Washington, where I paired academic research with hands-on experience. At SFMTA, I developed design strategies that advanced urban sustainability and mobility goals. As a Research Assistant at the Institute for Hazard Mitigation Planning and Research, I evaluated climate policies and translated them into clear, actionable guidance for diverse stakeholders.Whether improving transit access, advancing climate goals, or engaging the public, I approach each project with the same focus: turning data and policy into practical solutions that deliver lasting community and environmental benefits.
