Turning data into insight for organizations doing good.

I build technology and data products that turn information into insight for NGOs and UN agencies working in international development and humanitarian response.

Today, I work with leading international NGOs and UN agencies to assess their digital maturity and shape the strategy that follows. I run stakeholder workshops that turn user needs into product journeys and a roadmap for the tools and investments ahead.

How I got here.

I trained as an economist and statistician, building expertise in data modeling and statistical analysis. Early on, I saw how much analysis depends on clean, complete data. That gap pulled me toward the intersection of data and technology, where I now help international organizations use their data better and understand their impact.
