As a qualitative research specialist, I love understanding people’s experiences and using that knowledge to create positive change. I focus on exploring human behavior, perspectives, and emotions, especially from those whose voices are often ignored. My goal is to use research to build empathy, identify challenges, and create inclusive environments. I’ve seen how qualitative research can spark change by revealing hidden stories, encouraging conversations, and working with communities to find solutions. I believe real change starts with empathy, understanding, and teamwork. I’m dedicated to ensuring that diverse voices are heard and respected. Through careful research and commitment, I aim to help build a fairer and more compassionate world.

I am currently working on qualitative and design projects, offering technical expertise across various portfolios. My work involves designing qualitative study instruments, training field teams, piloting and supervising data collection activities, and analyzing and interpreting findings to provide actionable insights to clients.
