Evaluating what works to inform policy and practice 

About

I am a development economist specializing in impact evaluation methods and the evaluation of interventions that promote inclusive and equitable socio-economic development in low- and middle-income countries, including fragile settings.

As an Impact Evaluation Analyst at the World Food Programme, I lead the design and feasibility assessment of rigorous impact evaluations in South Sudan and Sudan. Previously, I managed the field implementation of randomized controlled trials in Ghana, South Sudan, and Madagascar.

I hold a PhD in Development Economics from the Graduate Institute in Geneva, where my doctoral research comprised three impact evaluations studying pro-poor policies in Malawi, Tanzania, and South Africa.

Research interests

Impact evaluations, evidence use and research ethics, indicator measurement, cash-based assistance, education, food security, social protection, and fragile and conflict-affected settings.
