Research & Innovation

Advancing knowledge through rigorous scholarship and translating research into practical solutions that transform organizations and communities.

Research Philosophy

My research bridges the gap between academic rigor and real-world application. I believe that scholarship must be both intellectually sound and practically relevant, addressing pressing challenges while contributing to theoretical advancement. Through mixed-methods approaches, interdisciplinary collaboration, and community engagement, my work seeks to generate insights that drive positive change.
