Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolOmar Ureta is a Los Angeles–based design consultant and urban designer with 11 years of experience translating city data into maps, visual narratives, and civic tools that inform planning and public policy. He combines hands-on geospatial analysis, data modeling, and interactive visualization with analog design methods to help communities and agencies communicate complex land use and development issues. As an adjunct professor and former urban policy research fellow, he blends teaching and stakeholder facilitation with practice, running workshops and co-developing educational programs. His background in architecture and project management enables him to move projects from concept through public review and entitlements, while his curiosity for everyday urban stories—whether industrial impacts or where all the tacos are—drives accessible, place-based work.
