About
I am an evaluator and researcher with extensive experience creating and implementing evaluation strategies, frameworks, methodologies and tools for community-focused arts and heritage initiatives. I work in collaboration with museums, arts, and human rights organisations to explore the role of cultural and heritage engagement in the construction of collective memory, identity, health and wellbeing.
I have a special interest in co-curated/co-produced projects and expertise in creative and reflective evaluation approaches and tools.
