Background

About Brayden Lander

Urban Planner | GIS Coordinator | MPA Student | Focused on Sustainable Cities, Governance, and International DevelopmentI am an urban planner and current Master of Public Administration (MPA) student with experience as a GIS Coordinator and a passion for sustainable urban development and international public service. With a background in spatial planning, geospatial analysis, and data-driven decision-making, I bring both technical and policy expertise to complex development challenges.My GIS experience has strengthened my ability to translate data into actionable insights for urban infrastructure, land use, and community development—skills I now combine with training in public policy, program evaluation, and institutional reform through my MPA studies.I am particularly interested in working with multilateral organizations, NGOs, and donor-funded programs that advance sustainable urbanization, climate adaptation, and inclusive governance in rapidly urbanizing regions.
