Research
I define the need or decision, understand the constraints, and establish what the evidence would need to show before anyone relies on it.
Evidence into use
Better experiences built with evidence.
I turn complex needs and uncertain evidence into clear decisions, useful services, and working tools.
A way of working
unclear need→useful intervention
uncertain evidence→supported decision
working prototype→service people can use
How I work
Research-led. Designed for use. Built end to end.
Service design
I work out what people need to experience, understand, and be able to do for the service to work in practice.
Building
I make the smallest useful intervention the situation requires, test the hard parts, and leave a path another person can continue.
My service
Turn customer outcomes into evidence you can build on.
Evaltron is my focused customer-outcome evidence and measurement service for B2B companies. It helps make one claim concrete, prepare for an important conversation, and decide what evidence to build next.

How can you operationalise rapport?
A working event experiment that gives peers a real problem to explore and a fair opportunity to demonstrate how they think and work.
2Where do humans fit in the future of research?
Better human research data begins with a better experience of collecting it.
1Synthetic research: claims must match evidence
I built a synthetic-research prototype and tested it until I found the boundary between useful machine signals and claims about people.
About me
A full-chain research carpenter.
I work from problem definition and data collection through analysis, service design, tool building, delivery, and evaluation.
I call this research carpentry because the material follows the job. The useful answer might be data, interviews, software, a service, a report, or a decision process. My grounding is a PhD in social psychology and formal training in psychometrics, strengthened by years of applied research, software development, product work, and company building.

Review. Build. Rescue.
Get in touch to arrange a no-obligation, 30-minute conversation.
Tell me what needs to work, what decision is ahead, or what has become stuck.
Review and assess.
You have a survey, analysis, panel, synthetic-research claim, or research product and need an independent view before you rely on it.
Design and build.
You have an unmet need or uncertain opportunity and need the research, interface, software, or operating path it requires.
Research rescue and triage.
A piece of research, product, or service has become difficult, unclear, or stuck. I help establish what must be stabilised, what can be recovered, and what the next useful step should be.
