About   Research   Teaching   Consulting   CV

Alongside my academic research, I have served as a consultant on projects with international organizations, government agencies, and private firms. These experiences span program evaluation, organizational design, and strategic planning across diverse sectors. They complement my research by grounding theoretical insights in real-world organizational and policy challenges, and they have provided me with hands-on experience in managing complex projects, advising senior leaders, and designing organizational interventions that balance efficiency with social impact.
