We love what we do and who we work with.

As COO, I develop, implement and refine processes to support our staff, build trust, and encourage collaboration.

I am the Accounting and Office Manager for all things Apex. Along with that, I handle payroll and human resources for our employees, and help with keeping the office running smoothly.

I keep track of project deliverables and cultivate relationships with our clients. I feel very lucky to be involved in the wonderful work our clients are doing for our kids and communities.

Although approaches to research and evaluation can be abstract and increasingly complicated, I don’t think they have to be. I believe the best work is co-created to produce transparent, approachable, and meaningful results.

For me, evaluation is all about turning data into understanding how things work and guiding practical change that betters people, organizations, and communities.

At its best, I believe that the reflective practice at the core of thoughtful evaluation has the power to help organizations, projects, and individuals accelerate their growth and expand their impact.

I am responsible for the billing for a few of the NM School Based Health Centers as well as some of the data analysis and reporting for both NM and Colorado SBHCs.

The best aspect of my role is the opportunity to connect people with each other and with solutions for the complex issues that Apex’s work addresses.

I have realized my strengths in evaluation and applied research to promote health by asking important questions, synthesizing data, and sharing evaluation results.

I enjoy producing educational material for Apex’s systems and tools, further bolstering the range of support we can provide our clients and evaluators.

I get to work with every part of the organization in various capacities and at the same time interface directly with clients to provide support and information.

I am the chief evangelist for Apex’s approach to evaluation and am passionate about our vision: Evaluation that works.
