I help organizations make decisions, where frameworks break under real conditions, and design research that survives implementation. I bring cross-domain pattern recognition that connects fields specialists can’t see from inside their silos.
Research-based Projects | Intensive Investigation or deep research on a specific topic

Boundary Spanning | Cross-functional scenario map to translate between disciplines and identify connections
Who This Serves: Multi-stakeholder initiatives, cross-sector collaborations, research consortia, and organizations working at the intersection of technology, governance, climate, equity, or geopolitical systems.
Deliverables:
- Integrated scenario maps
- Cross-domain synthesis reports

- Facilitated working sessions, collaborative white papers, or multi-perspective analysis.
GETTING STARTED
In our initial consult, we discuss your research question, methodology, and deliverable needs.
Typical engagement:
- Scoping call (30 min, free)
- Research design proposal (question, methods, timeline, budget)
- Agreement + research kickoff
- Ongoing updates and milestone check-ins
- Final deliverable + debrief
If you need research that bridges disciplines, challenges assumptions, or builds new frameworks where none exist, let’s connect!
