Social scientist, qualitative researcher, and public policy analyst with professional experience in federal government and consulting environments. Committed to both intellectual inquiry and making a real-world difference through innovative and rigorous research and teaching. Passionate about understanding long-term governance challenges in the US and internationally, and their many intersections with democracy.As a social scientist specializing in public policy, I’m dedicated to bridging the gap between timeless public policy theories and the real-world needs of policy professionals. By turning abstract frameworks like Kingdon’s Multiple Streams into practical tools, strategies, and support, I empower legislative staffers and other policy professionals to offer better advice to inform better policy decisions. Whether you're navigating legislative challenges on Capitol Hill or working to shape public policy, I’m here to help you build confidence, sharpen your strategic thinking, and ultimately, increase your impact.In my years of experience as a public policy researcher and educator, I’ve helped hundreds of current and aspiring professionals save time and improve the quality of their policy work. My research on Kingdon’s Multiple Streams Framework has been published in leading academic journals, and presented around the world - from the US to Europe, Australia, and Canada. I’ve designed courses and tools that bring this and other frameworks to life for university graduate students, while my new project seeks to being these tools to policy professionals working in legislative and advocacy roles. I’m always happy to connect with policy professionals who are ready to enhance their strategic thinking and elevate their impact. Reach out if you’d like to discuss how I can help you apply research-based tools to your policy work—or if you’re interested in learning more about my courses and training programs.If you're a researcher interested in public policy processes, improving theoretical frameworks like the MSF, or long-term governance challenges like climate change and democratic erosion, you know how to contact me.
