What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead research and data access, build dashboards, and deliver trusted, compliant insights to executives—while managing concurrent initiatives and continuously improving analysis and decision-making.

I’m a research and data-access leader who partners with senior stakeholders to turn complex information into clear, actionable insights. At Chora Group and the Maryland Judiciary, I advance organizational priorities through in-depth research, performance measurement, and analytical decision support—monitoring industry and emerging market opportunities while ensuring data quality, validity, and timely delivery.

I also bring hands-on experience scaling high-volume, high-stakes data operations and evidence workflows. As a Data Access Manager & Senior Researcher, I manage the Research & Analysis Program’s operational processes, build internal data dashboards, and independently handle legislative, media, and Public Information Act (PIA) / Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests with compliant dissemination of sensitive information; earlier in my career, I supported environmental litigation by managing e-discovery repositories and delivering expert-ready research across 120+ cases.
