I am a researcher with 10 years of experience designing and carrying out research studies, primarily using qualitative methods. I use design-based research focused on continuous improvement of products to identify and address the challenges that teachers face in supporting their students’ learning. To identify problems and test solutions, I employ a variety of research methods as called for by the research question, including: interviews, classroom observations, student work analysis, reflections, screen recording, surveys, and think-alouds. I communicate these findings with multiple stakeholders through written reports, journal articles, presentations, and workshops.
I enjoy environments where I have opportunities to collaborate with those who come to the same problem with other perspectives, together we can push our thinking through using different lenses of understanding.
