With nearly two decades of experience spanning education, training, public administration, and emergency management, my work focuses on strengthening organizations and the people who operate within them. I specialize in program evaluation, instructional design, organizational learning, and capacity building, with particular interest in complex systems where leadership, coordination, evidence, and learning must work together.

My career began in emergency management and response, where more than a decade in applied, high-consequence environments shaped the practical perspective I bring to my work today. Since transitioning into academia and professional education, I have led the design, development, and evaluation of competency-based learning programs, led institutional effectiveness initiatives, and developed strategies for translating evidence into meaningful improvements in performance and decision-making.

My academic background spans emergency management, criminal justice, public administration, leadership, and complex systems, with graduate study in both the United States and the United Kingdom. I am currently in my second doctoral program, continuing a longstanding interest in connecting research, evaluation, and practice to help organizations build lasting capability.
