A software platform that simulates and visualizes human movement and social connection patterns in 3D built environments. Developed through interdisciplinary collaboration with software engineers and UBC Psychology researchers. 

Establishes quantitative metrics for evaluating the intangible social benefits of architectural design. Integrates multiple data sources, including key fob movement tracking and comprehensive validation surveys, to create evidence-based spatial models of social interaction. The project was funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation as part of a broader initiative to establish empirical connections between built environment interventions and community health outcomes. 

Responsible for research, analysis, and hyperparameter validation.
