Bio
Valerie Stahl is an Assistant Professor of City Planning in the School of Public Affairs at San Diego State University. Her mixed-methods research focuses on promoting more equitable housing and land use policies in US cities. Increasingly, through collaborative and advocacy-based research, her work also explores how features of the built environment, including housing, zoning, and community development policies, produce place-based cancer disparities. Stahl’s research has been used in campaigns on rent stabilization, the privatization of public housing, and fair housing initiatives. Prior to her Ph.D., she worked at the Institute for Policy Integrity at NYU School of Law and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development in Washington, D.C. Stahl holds a Ph.D. in Urban Planning from a Columbia University, a Masters in Urban Affairs from Sciences Po Paris, and a BA in Social and Cultural Analysis and Romance Languages from New York University.
