Eunji Kim

Urban Data Scientist & Architect · NYU

Deconstructing complex urban systems quantitatively to design human-centric environments.

I am an M.S. candidate in Urban Data Science at New York University, focusing on the intersection of architecture and advanced analytics. My work is rooted in the belief that data can reveal the hidden rhythms of a city, allowing for more resilient and intelligent planning.

With over six years of professional experience bridging architectural design, logistics planning, and data analytics, I leverage spatial computing and machine learning to build smarter urban futures.
