Naomi enjoys unpacking complex questions, listening carefully, and figuring out how the pieces connect.
Over the past 16 years, she has worked with charities, funders, designers and healthcare organisations to turn research into practical action. She began her career at Ipsos MORI and the National Centre for Social Research later running international research at BBC Media Action. At Shift, she partnered with designers to shape and evaluate products addressing social issues including youth obesity and maternal mental health.
She spent five years in the US leading research and programme development at Zen Caregiving Project, where she worked closely with clinicians, academics and families to ensure programmes were grounded in evidence and responsive to the people they were designed to support.
At Bean, Naomi brings her commitment to social impact and accessible research into practice. She works with partners to understand the impact of their programmes and to embed research that results in continuous learning and programme improvement.
Outside of Bean, she is a governor at a London-based nursery and a member of Malaika UK, a charity supporting orphaned children in Tanzania.
