About Me.

Advancing Change Through Evaluation and Community-Centered Research

With a focus on systemic change, I specialize in trauma-informed evaluations, incorporating both phenomenological research and community-based participatory research (CBPR) methodologies. This approach prioritizes the voices and lived experiences of the communities involved, ensuring that their insights inform every stage of the research process.

My work is dedicated to making data and research more inclusive and actionable, ensuring that program and policy evaluations result in meaningful, sustainable change. By integrating research, policy, and community perspectives, I aim to contribute to the creation of systems where individuals and communities can thrive.
