“Amy has helped to catalyze significant organizational change at Global Health Corps over the past 2 years as a trusted and competent evaluation and strategy consultant. She has guided the organization through a process of data-driven learning that began with the development and completion of the GHC's first-ever impact evaluation and continued through her subsequent role as a strategic planning facilitator and evaluation consultant. Amy's professional experience, academic credentials and passion for global health lend an unequaled perspective to the strategic planning and problem-solving processes at GHC. Her de facto mentorship of individual team members has helped to institutionalize and sustain positive changes at GHC, leaving the organization stronger and more resilient as a result of her efforts.”

Beyond Rebuilding Infrastructure: Rethinking Global Health Development
Skoll Foundation
The practical aspects of shoring up health systems – building infrastructure, training healthcare workers, strengthening supply chains, and implementing information systems for surveillance – are critical.
