Working at the interface of policymaking and innovative social science, I bring more than 15 years of applied policy experience, program management skills, and research expertise in the areas of peace-building, development and governance in the Middle East. I gained field-based insights during the critical juncture of popular mobilizations, and the ensuing transformations in the region working with both local grassroots activists as well as decision makers. As Governance team leader at the UN and Senior Researcher on the Middle East, I was able to bridge academia, and the policy world. By producing high quality evidence-based research based on comparatively grounded analysis, I was able to influence important policy processes. I translated findings into actionable recommendations, and tailored capacity-building. This allowed me to develop a broad network among policymakers, to communicate effectively with donors, and to mobilize funds.
