I am Adriana Ariza, Ph.D., an applied developmental psychologist who uses research and evaluation as tools for equity and transformation. My work centers the voices of young people and communities of color, ensuring that their experiences guide how programs and systems evolve.

​

Over the past decade, I’ve led collaborations with nonprofits, foundations, and educational institutions to reimagine how impact is measured. By blending rigorous data analysis with community-based approaches, I help organizations move beyond numbers to uncover stories that spark learning, accountability, and change.
