Located in Miami, Florida, I conduct program evaluation and research projects with a diverse range of education, health, and human services programs. I am a Professor at Nova Southeastern University where I teach program evaluation, research methods, and statistics to undergraduate and graduate students. I also have a podcast where I speak with leaders in evaluation and related areas.
My program evaluation project focus areas include afterschool services, positive youth development, arts for the promotion of well-being, foster care, dependency court, family court, drug court, homelessness, mental health, runaway youth, mindfulness, and leadership development. I have worked with a diverse range of organizations funded by federal and state government entities as well as foundations since 2000.
