Bio.

GRANT ENGEL is Manager, Data Policy at the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA), where he works in the Office of Innovation to integrate business innovation and business intelligence into SEPTA culture. 

Grant is a graduate of the Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy at Rutgers University, where he received a Masters of City and Regional Planning with a concentration in Transportation.

Grant has worked or interned for transportation agencies and research institutes including the National Transit Institute, Rutgers University Department of Transportation Services, New York City Department of Transportation, and the Alan M. Voorhees Transportation Center. He has broad experience collecting, analyzing, and presenting data, but his professional mission is ensuring that users of public transportation and urban spaces have rewarding and friction-free experiences. 

His interests in transportation span public transit, wayfinding, parking policy, and pedestrian and bicycle facilities. In particular, he is passionate about the ease of access to transit information and facilities, including wayfinding and information technologies that lower the barrier to transit use. He believes that parking is the bottleneck to automobile use and the most significant impact transportation has on land use.

Before graduate school, Grant worked as a graphic designer in his native South Florida.

Grant studied English and Philosophy at Boston University, where he graduated Summa Cum Laude.
