Strategic Research, Scalable Data Science, Trustworthy Results

I partner with teams to design and execute rigorous, reproducible research—combining advanced statistical methods, applied data science, and robust study design to inform decision-making.

I earned my PhD in Psychology at the University of Oregon, completed post-doctoral work at Harvard where I was hired on as a Research Associate, and most recently led technologist-focused science as Principal Research Scientist at the Developer Success Lab. I’m available to bring that same rigor directly to your projects.

Engagement Model

All work is package-based—we collaborate on a plan that includes a block of hours each month for live collaboration (video calls, async chat) and all deliverables (analysis scripts, study plans, slide decks). Packages scale from a quick sanity check to an accelerated, end-to-end research sprint.

What I bring to your team

  • Broad research experience: 15+ years across multiple methods and domains of inquiry
  • Transparent workflows: Code and analyses shared via version control with clear documentation and we work together to make sure everything is reproducible.
  • Crafted for your audience: Reports, slide decks, and visuals are created to be understood by stakeholders with a variety of expertise.
  • Collaborative, communicative: Regular check-ins and draft reviews keep us aligned.
