Yui Hashimoto

Yui Hashimoto is currently a Social Research Scientist and program evaluator at Public Health Seattle & King County. 

As an academic, she is a feminist economic geographer whose work focuses on urban economic change, social difference, and social movements to examine how racial capitalism, as a global and historical system, is reproduced and contested through local urban development. Her research and publication projects examine economic redevelopment, colorblindness, and segregation in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Before moving to program evaluation and Public Health, Yui was a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Dartmouth College Society of Fellows. She has been reflecting on her career transition on Medium. She keeps in touch with academia through mentoring students, as well as thinking and writing with fellow geographers.
