I am a measurement, evaluation, and learning (MEL) professional who supports federal agencies, international organizations, and private foundations to improve public well-being through applied qualitative and quantitative research. My project portfolio spans a range of programmatic sectors and focus areas, leveraging data-driven insights to assess performance, measure impact, and advise clients on action-oriented solutions. Having lived, worked, and collaborated with research partners across the francophone world, I am committed to applying the principles of co-creation and participatory engagement to research design and implementation. As a lifelong student of the liberal arts and an avid reader of fiction, I also value the application of storytelling in evaluation as a means to illustrate what works, what doesn't, and why.My primary areas of expertise include qualitative research methods; non-experimental and participatory evaluation approaches (e.g., process and performance evaluation, theory-based evaluation, implementation analysis, innovative methods); survey design and sampling; training and capacity building; research presentation and guided discussion facilitation; and broad knowledge of issues pertaining to global health, governance, and social inclusion in francophone West and Central Africa. I have collaborated with clients such as USAID, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF), the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC), and the International Organization for Migration (IOM) to address a variety of research and analytics needs, and have conducted primary research in seven francophone countries: Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Democratic Republic of the Congo, France, Niger, Senegal, and Tunisia.
