Nilo Teixeira Campos Cobau

Nilo is an urban transportation planner with a particular interest in how to help increase the mobility and access of people in the developing world to opportunity— informed by his frequent sojourns to his mother country of Brazil, and how to prevent other places from replicating the myriad of mistakes the United States made. He began his academic life as a Physics and Classics Major on the West Coast at Stanford University, briefly migrated into the snowy Finger Lakes to pursue (and decide it was not worth pursuing) a PhD in Applied Physics at Cornell, and is now excited to help people move around more easily.
