Developing Evaluation Tools That Work for You

I’m dedicated to supporting museums in developing practical, adaptable evaluation tools that align with their mission, audiences, and available capacity. Museums today face complex challenges—including tighter budgets and limited staff time—that require evaluation approaches to be not only effective but also efficient and sustainable.

Whether you’re evaluating education programs, exhibitions, or visitor engagement initiatives, my goal is to co-create user-friendly, customizable tools that are grounded in proven evaluation methods and tailored to your unique context. These tools help you gather meaningful data, measure impact clearly, and confidently communicate results to funders, stakeholders, and your community.

Evaluation Planning for Programs, Exhibitions, and Grants

I collaborate with museums to design and implement evaluation plans for both existing and emerging programs, exhibitions, and grant-funded projects. With a strong focus on visitor-centered programming, audience development, and user experience, I help organizations identify opportunities for growth and audience research.

My work goes beyond project-based evaluation—I partner with you to embed evaluative thinking into daily workflows and decision-making. Through strategic planning and staff coaching, I support departments in building long-term evaluation capacity, sustaining meaningful practices, and fostering a culture of reflection and learning across your institution.
