Lets redesign the way we do research and create impact
I partner with research teams, centers, and institutions to design and strengthen equity-centered research, programs, and strategy so your work is rigorous, community-aligned, measurable, and built to last.
Consulting & Research Areas
When to use this: You’re launching a study/program and want equity built into the design from day one.
What we do: refine research questions, strengthen community engagement plans, reduce participant burden, improve feasibility, align measures with equity goals.
Example Deliverables: study design, engagement/recruitment plan, implementation roadmap, measurement/evaluation plan.
When to use this: Partnerships feel fragile, unclear, or extractive or you want to build a sustainable model for future partnerships.
What we do: partnership structure, roles/expectations, reciprocity practices, trust-building processes, advisory board design.
Deliverables: partnership/MOU templates, community engagement playbook, governance and decision-making structure.
When to use this: Enrollment/retention is lagging, especially among historically excluded groups.
What we do: diagnose barriers via research, optimize messaging and channels, strengthen recruitment workflows, build retention systems and feedback loops.
Deliverables: recruitment/retention strategy, messaging toolkit, site/team workflow recommendations, participant experience improvements.
When to use this: You need the initiative to run well and prove impact.
What we do: implementation planning, qualitative feedback loops, rapid-cycle learning, evaluation design, stakeholder reporting.
Deliverables: implementation plan, evaluation framework, interview guides, rapid analysis summaries, actionable recommendations.
When to use this: You have equity goals, but not a clear path to execution or you need accountability and measurement.
What we do: clarify goals, align strategy to operations, define metrics, build an action plan that survives real constraints.
Deliverables: equity strategy map, prioritized action plan, metrics dashboard outline, communication plan.
Equity Is the Work. Not the Add-On.
I believe that equity isn’t something we sprinkle in after the strategy is written. It’s the framework that shapes how we ask questions, design programs, build culture, and measure success. I work with people and institutions who are ready to move differently, to design research, leadership, and organizational systems that reflect the communities they serve and the values they hold.
Whether we’re rethinking extractive research models or embedding care into institutional strategy, I bring tools that are evidence-based, liberatory, and built to last.
Because when our systems reflect our values, impact isn’t just possible, it becomes sustainable.
