Engagingly tell your story with real data to back it up.
My practice helps nonprofits and foundations get better by conducting research and evaluation and building evaluation and learning systems. Together, we ask strategic questions, design data collection approaches, gather and synthesize complex information, and share what is learned in an accessible way. The collaborative process can grow your confidence and comfort in working with data and using it effectively.

Susan E. Foster
I believe that evaluation’s power lies in using data to improve organizations and systems. I love working with people who are curious about evaluation but need some coaching to build their confidence and skills. My evaluation work focuses on continuous learning and enhancing strategic thinking. My work seeks to raise up the voices of all of the people engaged in creating positive change by emphasizing participatory processes, technical assistance, and capacity building.
