I primarily pursued projects related to performing statistical analyses using SPSS and R (e.g., univariate and repeated measures ANOVA, multiple regression).

My primary responsibility was the analysis of both quantitative and qualitative data from First 5 Monterey County and its funded partners for use in compliance reporting, strategic planning, and program evaluation. I conducted thorough literature reviews encompassing diverse topics including kindergarten readiness, parent empowerment and resilience, Parent-Child Playgroup programs, and Friends, Family, Neighborhood (FFN) services. I also supported the development of a framework for monitoring outcome data utilizing the Persimmony database system.

I collaborated with stakeholders to develop an evaluation plan for local programs embedded in elementary school settings designed to measure program outcomes. I helped support RtMP's program evaluation from initiation to follow up by establishing project timelines and milestones, scheduling regular updates to the leadership team on status in written reports, developed, implemented, and managed program performance data collection and reporting systems, and executing program evaluation processes and analytic plans.
