Do you need support to: • Design practical research tools and engagement approaches • Review evidence and identify what matters • Translate field realities into clear findings and recommendations • Strengthen reports, proposals, assessments, and evaluation-related outputs • Bring a grounded social impact lens to AI evaluation and training work I help development organizations, NGOs, research institutions, and consulting firms design and deliver credible, ethical, and decision-ready research, assessments, and evaluation support, helping them move beyond data collection to clear insights that inform program design, adaptation, accountability, policy dialogue, and practical decision-making. I am a sociologist and applied research consultant with over 15 years of experience across Kenya and Tanzania, with expertise in applied research, assessments, evaluation support, stakeholder engagement, and policy-oriented evidence generation. My work has focused on WASH, water resources management, child protection, and social development programs. I have led and supported qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods studies across the full research lifecycle, from study design, tool development, ethical and safeguarding considerations, and field coordination to analysis, reporting, and stakeholder engagement. I am particularly experienced in supporting complex, multi-stakeholder research processes and ensuring findings are both methodologically sound and practically useful. What I can support you with: • Applied Research & Assessments: baseline and feasibility studies; needs and context assessments; diagnostic studies; humanitarian and development research • Qualitative & Mixed-Methods Research: research design, KIIs, FGDs, interview guides, field tools, data collection planning, and thematic analysis • Desk Research & Evidence Review: literature reviews, desk reviews, document review, evidence synthesis, and summaries of key secondary data findings • Stakeholder Engagement: stakeholder mapping, consultation planning, and engagement support • Policy & Evidence Support: policy-oriented research, evidence synthesis, briefs, recommendations, and translation of findings for program and decision-making audiences • Reporting & Knowledge Products: high-quality technical reports, donor-ready deliverables, learning summaries, presentations, and practical recommendations • Responsible AI & Human Feedback: LLM response review, AI content evaluation, rubric-based assessment, SME annotation, bias and context review, and human-in-the-loop feedback for social impact, development, WASH, child protection, and community-facing topics My approach is collaborative, ethical, and context-sensitive. I work closely with clients to clarify objectives, adapt methodologies to real-world constraints, and deliver outputs that are rigorous, clear, and usable. I am comfortable engaging with government counterparts, donors, implementing partners, technical teams, and community stakeholders, and I prioritize respectful and participatory processes. In AI-related projects, my value is not technical model building, but human judgement, domain expertise, qualitative review, ethical sensitivity, and the ability to assess whether AI-generated content is accurate, relevant, context-aware, and responsible. If you are looking for a consultant who can think critically, manage complexity, and translate evidence into action, I would be glad to support your work.
