CHRIS BUONOMO

Master of Urban Planning Candidate at USC

I'm pursuing my master's in Urban Planning at the USC Sol Price School of Public Policy with a focus on Transportation. Hailing from New Jersey, I moved to LA to be immersed in the city's rapidly evolving transportation system: we've got a growing metro, a huge bus network, bike lanes (I wish there were more), freeways (I wish there were fewer) and scooters (I wish they weren't such a big deal). I will do most anything for a scenic bike ride, a good pastrami sandwich and Bruce Springsteen. Ideas for dad jokes and bad puns welcomed.
