Hire the Best Qualitative Researchers
in the United States

With a Ph.D. in Industrial/Organizational Psychology and a Master's in Applied Statistics and Data Analytics, I bridge data science and organizational strategy. I specialize in turning complex, multi-source data into clear, defensible insights that support decision-making across business, HR, research, and financial contexts. I've worked with performance, sales, engagement, and survey datasets to develop KPIs, surface patterns, build predictive models, and automate reporting pipelines that produce clean, branded outputs. I also do independent validation and methodological review, pressure-testing survey instruments, models, and AI-generated data to tell clients honestly where the work holds up and where it doesn't. My toolkit spans data cleaning, visualization, and predictive modeling in Python, R, SQL, and Excel, with deep experience in survey design, psychometrics, and text analytics. I can help you with: *Data Cleaning, Validation & Integration – Building reliable, analysis-ready datasets from multiple sources. *Validation & Methodological Review – Independent benchmarking, psychometric and content validation, and honest assessment of frameworks, assessments, and meausres. *KPI & Dashboard Development – Defining and visualizing performance metrics that align with strategy. *Survey Design & Workforce Analytics – Designing and analyzing surveys for employee experience, leadership, and DEI. *Predictive & Statistical Modeling – Regression, SEM, and machine learning for forecasting and insight. *Data Storytelling & Strategy – Turning analytics into narratives and recommendations for executives and teams. My goal is simple: to make analytics practical, reliable, and strategic, helping organizations turn data into smarter action.
