Q+A

What made you interested in transportation?
I remember Tysons Corner, Virginia, as a kid in the '70s – a sleepy place based solely on car travel. But as anyone can see, Tysons the “edge city” is changing before our eyes and is a harbinger of shifts nationwide. It is fascinating to be directly involved with all the changes in transportation and living styles with Wells + Associates – a firm that is playing a big part in how our society is changing: the steady increase in transit and transportation options, the behavioral changes in how our society moves around, and an evolving suburban landscape. Every day it’s a pleasure to work with people who are truly “meeting the needs of a mobile society,” as our tagline says.
What is your personal life philosophy?
My favorite sports team, Tottenham Hotspur Football Club in London, puts it well: “To Dare Is To Do.”
Where is your favorite place to travel and why?
Any kind of travel or destination is appealing to me, notably cross-country USA. But having lived and worked in Tokyo, I always relish a visit back to explore and enjoy. And, I feel I could explore London for a solid year and not feel satiated!
Favorite book?
An impossible question to answer, but I’ll give this one: Salt: A World History. A fascinating book. I’ve never been (politely) interrupted so many times when reading a book in public. “Excuse me, but what is that book you’re reading?”
