ABOUT
I am a research specialist focused on programming for children, youth, and families in humanitarian contexts. I specialize in participatory methods and action research to capture and describe complex human experiences in order to contribute to both program and institutional improvement and growth. I use photography as a research tool, as a participatory method, and for reporting and story telling purposes.
I have a decade of experience as an independent research, evaluation, and assessment specialist in both development and humanitarian contexts globally. Clients include USAID, UNHCR, UNICEF, Save the Children, Norwegian Refugee Council, CARE UK, Education Above All, and Terre des Hommes. I received my PhD in Education Policy, Research, and Administration from the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 2020.
