Frequently asked questions.

I partner with mission-driven organizations — foundations, nonprofits, public agencies, healthcare organizations, academic institutions, and community-serving programs — that want research and strategy grounded in evidence and rooted in the communities they serve.

Yes. While I'm based in the Phoenix area, I work with organizations nationally. Many engagements are conducted remotely, and I'm available for travel for on-site work, workshops, and conference presentations.

Yes — bilingual capability is core to my practice. I conduct research, develop communications, run engagement, and deliver translation and transcription fluently in both English and Spanish. This is included at no additional charge across all service areas.

It means I don't hand you a report and walk away. I move with you through the whole arc — listening to your goals, conducting rigorous research, translating findings into strategy, and helping you activate and measure real community impact.

Absolutely. Each practice area — research & evaluation, marketing & communications, community & engagement, and language & learning — can be engaged on its own or combined. I'll recommend the right scope for your goals during our discovery call.

Yes. I have extensive experience with federally funded research and grant-funded program evaluations. I understand reporting requirements, compliance standards, and the documentation expectations that come with public funding. Pricing for federal and grant-funded projects is scoped separately.

Yes. With 30+ presentations at national conferences and professional forums, I regularly speak on community-engaged research, interprofessional education, bilingual strategy, and human trafficking as a public health issue. Reach out to discuss availability and topics.

It's a free 30-minute conversation — no pressure, no pitch. We'll talk through your organization, your goals, and what you're trying to solve. I'll share how I'd approach it and whether there's a good fit. If there is, I'll follow up with a clear, scoped proposal.

Every engagement is scoped to your specific needs and timeline. After our discovery call, I provide a clear proposal with deliverables, timeline, and pricing — no surprises. Projects can be structured hourly or flat-fee. See the Services page for rate ranges, or reach out and we'll talk through it.

It depends on scope. A targeted needs assessment or communication piece might wrap in 3–6 weeks, while a full program evaluation typically runs 3–6 months. I'll give you a realistic timeline in the proposal — I don't overpromise on delivery dates.

Send me a note through the contact form and I'll respond within one business day to set up our discovery call. I typically begin new engagements within 2–4 weeks of an initial conversation, depending on current capacity.
