Education

The University of Sydney

Master of Transport, Oct 2023-Dec 2025; English-taught programme

Completed coursework across transport modelling, logistics and future cities, urban data science, transport sustainability, infrastructure planning, and field-based urban audit methods.
Developed applied research projects using scenario appraisal, infrastructure quality scoring, Python-based accessibility analysis, and freight decarbonisation case studies.

Suzhou University of Science and Technology

Bachelor of Engineering, Traffic Engineering, Sep 2019-Jun 2023

Built foundational training in traffic engineering, transport systems, road planning, engineering analysis, and transport infrastructure design.

Research & Coursework Projects

Sustainable City Logistics and Urban Consolidation Centres

ITLS6016 Logistics and Future Cities, 2025

Analysed sustainable city logistics strategies, focusing on Urban Consolidation Centres, electric freight vehicles, night-time delivery, Freight Quality Partnerships, and Sustainable Urban Logistics Plans.
Synthesised evidence from urban logistics literature and practice, including the Regent Street Consolidation Centre in London, to assess how consolidation can reduce vehicle trips, emissions, and delivery externalities.
Developed an integrated argument linking technology, policy instruments, and governance mechanisms for more efficient and environmentally sustainable urban freight systems.

Net Zero Freight Pathways and Intermodal Logistics

ITLS6016 Group Presentation, 2025

Evaluated net-zero freight pathways by linking intermodal terminal development, road-to-rail modal shift, and logistics decarbonisation strategies around the Eastern Creek Intermodal Terminal case.
Examined the role of Port Botany freight connections, terminal operations, electrification, hydrogen pathways, and first-/last-mile integration in supporting a 2050 net-zero transition.

Sydney Cycling Infrastructure Audit using PIE and IQS

PLAN9076 Urban Report, 2025

Conducted a comparative audit of Oxford Street and Glebe-Ultimo cycleways using the Policy-Infrastructure-Experience framework and an Infrastructure Quality Score rubric.
Evaluated observable infrastructure quality across protection, intersection priority, directness, connectivity, comfort, legibility, and streetscape integration.
Identified an 8-point quality gap between two policy-equivalent separated cycleways, with Oxford Street scoring 27/30 and Glebe-Ultimo scoring 19/30.

Transport Demand Modelling and Cost-Benefit Appraisal

ITLS6102 Transport Modelling, 2024-2025

Developed scenario-based transport demand models in OmniTRANS using origin-destination matrices, skimmed travel times, car/public transport trip matrices, and vehicle-kilometre outputs.
Evaluated infrastructure variants through cost-benefit analysis, including user travel-time savings, CO2 valuation, investment costs, and benefit-cost ratios.
Compared public transport frequency changes and road-link interventions against future baseline scenarios to support evidence-based investment recommendations.

Urban Accessibility Analysis using Python and API Data

PLAN9075 Urban Data and Science of Cities, 2025

Used Python and Google Distance Matrix API outputs to compare driving and public transport travel times from Barangaroo to ten Sydney destinations.
Generated CSV outputs and visual comparisons to assess accessibility thresholds, travel-time differences, and the relative viability of public transport alternatives.

Professional Experience

Marketing Department, Shanghai Zhenhua Heavy Industries (ZPMC)

Market / commercial tender analysis role, Mar 2026-present

Analysed commercial tender documents for port equipment projects, with focus on quay cranes (QC), rubber-tyred gantry cranes (RTG), and rail-mounted gantry cranes (RMG).
Reviewed bidding requirements, technical-commercial clauses, contract structures, and tender response materials to support equipment procurement and sales processes.
Participated in May 2026 Ningbo tender-document analysis for a bucket-wheel stacker-reclaimer project, strengthening exposure to industrial equipment procurement beyond container-handling cranes.
