Hello!I'm currently studying Transport and City Planning at University College London (the Bartlett School of Planning). I am interested in how transport systems enable more equitable and sustainable cities. I also play piano and record music.Links to my CV, music, and social media accounts are below. My email address is [my first name] @ jackstaid.com.

I've (finally) released a few songs onto streaming platforms -- two originals, three covers. I'm sure I'd tweak some things if I had more time, but it had already been a long time coming. Recorded sporadically from 2021 to 2025 in Boston, Cambridge, and Dennis, Massachusetts.
