Role
I view evaluation activities as essential to informing development and demonstrating impact. My approach prioritizes collaboration to ensure our evaluation process and deliverables are both meaningful and practical for partners. With a strong ability to ask pertinent questions, synthesize data, and effectively communicate results, I strive to make evaluation a tool for learning and improvement. I am committed to practicing equitable evaluation, ensuring that the process is inclusive, culturally responsive, and rooted in the perspectives of the communities served. Currently at Apex, I work with a diverse portfolio of partners including community schools, school-based health centers, a philanthropic foundation, and nonprofit organizations. My work supports efforts to streamline data collection, align with reporting priorities, and translate findings into actionable insights.
Background and Education
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Biology with a Certificate in Global Health as well as a Master of Science in Population Health Sciences. I bring over six years of hands-on experience in assessing and enhancing the effectiveness of health- and wellbeing-focused initiatives. My other recent experiences include planning, facilitating, and evaluating programs across the fields of community-based nutrition education, community food systems, primary care solutions for pain management, community schools, and education.
