I specialize in applying practical, context-driven approaches to reduce conflict and build trust. From police reform in Indonesia to stabilization efforts in fragile states, I’ve led programs that engage governments, civil society, and communities to address root causes and promote lasting peace. I have trained scores of people in core conflict resolution methodologies to aid in our success.
I manage complex, multi-country portfolios with a focus on impact, efficiency, and growth. From strategy to execution, I align programs, people, and resources—driving performance across diverse contexts while ensuring compliance, risk oversight, and donor/client satisfaction.
I bring a proven ability to design and execute strategic plans that drive impact in complex, multi-country settings. With over two decades leading programs across Asia-Pacific, I’ve aligned diverse teams, partners, and donors around clear priorities—turning vision into measurable results. I excel at navigating uncertainty, managing risk, and translating high-level goals into operational plans that deliver growth, stability, and mission-aligned success.
I apply Political Economy Analysis to ground strategy in real-world power dynamics. From training USAID teams to leading assessments in fragile states, I use PEA to uncover barriers, identify leverage points, and shape programs that are politically smart and locally owned.
I lead diverse, multi-cultural teams across functions and geographies with clarity and accountability. Skilled in matrixed environments, I bridge global and local priorities, foster collaboration across silos, and build high-performing teams aligned around shared goals.
