Sarah has been practicing as an evaluator and social science researcher for 15 years. She holds a Masters in Applied Sociology and a Certified Associate in Project Management.

I partner with mission-driven organizations and collectives to enhance their evaluation and learning strategy, and build insightful data collection and reporting systems.

During my career, I have supported evaluation and organizational learning for a diverse range of programs and initiatives including those in the social services, community-based organizations, place-based initiatives and public health interventions.

What you should know about me:

As a reflection of my values of equity and social justice, I use culturally responsive, participatory and empowerment approaches so that communities are centered and their voices and contributions highlighted throughout the process. I embed learning culture principles into every group I work with.

Programs and initiatives are not static; they are part of a larger whole- our society and its systems. I use systems thinking tools and principles to consider the elements and connections both within the organization or collective, and outside of it in order to recognize and influence the conditions necessary for social change.

Professional Memberships:

I maintain active professional membership in several related professional associations, which allows me to apply cutting-edge knowledge to my projects, advocate for equitable policies, and improve outcomes for clients, particularly in the areas of health equity and community wellness. I’m a member of the American Evaluation Association (AEA) and their affiliate Washington (DC) Evaluators. I’m also an American Public Health Association (APHA) member along with their reginal affiliate Pennsylvania Public Health Association. Finally, I’m a CAPM certified member through the Project Management Institute and a member of their affiliate Project Management Institute Delaware Valley Chapter (PMI-DVC).

When I’m not evaluating

When I’m done for the day…

You will likely find me with my family. I’m an active volunteer in my kids’ extracurriculars and sports- as a Soccer Coach, PTO/PTA Secretary, and Girl Scout Troop Leader. I love to garden, embroider, puzzle, and read historic fiction. I’m a lifelong learner and remain curious about people and society.
