I am a freelance researcher and cultural policy practitioner.
I particularly enjoy working with organisations, across the public and third sector, to develop and embed research and evaluation systems which help them understand and evidence their impact.
My work uses research and evaluation techniques to bring together the experience and approach of the academic sector with the intrinsic knowledge and experience of practitioners and participants.
I offer consultancy services around:
- Designing evaluation frameworks
- Embedding evaluation practice into delivery
- Advice on the impact and evaluation of major cultural programmes.
My academic interests are around the implications of measuring cultural impact.
