A career shaped by institutions, organizations and context.

My work has evolved across community development, international development, institutional reform, organizational transformation, workplace culture and social-impact advisory.

The common thread is an interest in how organizations actually work in context — and how social and cultural dynamics affect whether strategies, policies and systems succeed.

I have worked with governments, private-sector companies, UN agencies and international development organizations across the Middle East and North Africa, Africa, Europe, North America and South Asia.

My experience spans social impact, organizational culture, institutional systems, workforce inclusion, women’s economic participation, social protection, public-sector reform, policy development, research and humanitarian response.
