Logan Nash is the Director of Transit Technology at the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) in Boston. As a senior leader in the MBTA’s Customer Technology Department, he oversees the operation and continuous improvement of rider-facing technology with one of the most sophisticated digital teams among American transit agencies. In 2019, he helped launch Skate, the MBTA’s open-source bus dispatch app, as part of the Authority’s ongoing effort to give transit riders increasingly useful and accurate information on digital signs, mbta.com, and third-party apps like Google Maps. Prior to joining the MBTA, Logan worked at the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Volpe Center. He serves on the board of directors for MobilityData. Nina is the Digital Services Tech Lead at LA Metro. She creates rider-facing web tools and optimizes the data that powers them. With 15 years as a technologist in local government, she is a passionate advocate for improving government technology in order to better serve the public. She aims to grow communities at the intersection of government and technology. This has led her to take on leading roles in a variety of groups and events, notably: Hack for LA (a volunteer civic tech group), the Code for America National Advisory Council, Data + Donuts LA (a local government-focused lecture and networking series), and the LA Arts Datathon. As a resident of Los Angeles, a city known for its reliance on cars, she is also an enthusiastic advocate for transportation alternatives and frequently enjoys taking buses and trains as well as bicycling and walking throughout the city. Andrew Salzberg is an independent climate technology consultant and lecturer at MIT, where he created a first-of-its-kind Decarbonizing Urban Mobility course. He also leads the North American transportation and industrial decarbonization programs for The Climate Group. He has served as a strategic advisor to leading mobility and climate technology companies, including Transit App, ClimateView, and Populus. In 2020, he served as a transportation and climate change policy advisor to the Biden presidential campaign. From 2019-2020, he was a Loeb fellow at Harvard’s Graduate School of Design. Before the Loeb fellowship, Salzberg created and held a unique executive role at Uber, focused on making the rideshare application a positive part of the future of urban transportation. He created Uber’s first teams focused on partnerships with public transportation agencies and environmental sustainability, led the development of Uber’s first data-sharing tool for government agencies, and spearheaded Uber’s support for “congestion pricing” around the world. Prior to joining Uber, Salzberg worked at the World Bank on a team that developed a multi-billion dollar lending program for China’s transport and urban development. He holds a Bachelor of Civil Engineering from McGill University and a Master’s in Urban Planning from Harvard. As a graduate student, Salzberg worked at Transport for London through the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Transit Lab.Board of Directors
