Introduction:
I have over 25 years experience conducting research and evaluation projects in public school settings and my experiences have included work in one suburban and two urban school districts. I have also collaborated on urban research projects with a colleague at the Center for the Social Organization of Schools at The Johns Hopkins University, analyzed comprehensive school reform case study data for WestEd, and conducted site visits in Vermont schools for the Windwalker Corporation. I am currently providing part-time research and evaluation services to an urban district and serving as evaluator for an Early Reading First grant.
