• Qualitative Methods

One-on-one or group consultation about utilizing MAXQDA (coding, memos, data visualization, etc.).

I hold a Master of Science in Global Health from the University of Notre Dame. I have been using MAXQDA for almost seven years in varying capacities in my professional work at St. Jude while working on various projects ranging from assessing barriers and facilitators to implementation, stigma associated with pediatric cancer, and pediatric cancer communication. I have analyzed both interview and focus group transcripts as well as survey data using MAXQDA and have extensive experience with in-depth coding using MAXQDA. I have also spent time training students and professional colleagues on basics of MAXQDA over the last few years.
