Javier Leal I work with mayors, developers, designers, and organizations
to help them improve their cities and communities.
Over the past 15 years, I have collaborated with leaders across the private, public, and non-profit sectors to plan, design, and implement tailored solutions that promote inclusive, resilient, and healthy communities. 

Most recently (2020 - 2024), I led the urban transformation projects of San Pedro Garza García, Mexico, as the head of the Urban Planning and Design Institute (implang.gob.mx). 

I hold a Master in City Planning from MIT and a Bachelor of Architecture from Tecnológico de Monterrey.
