Social Scientist | Writer | Founder of CrossCulturalVoices

exploring the intersection of culture, psychology, and behavioral shifts in an era of globalization and migration.

Bridging Research and Lived Experience

With a background in behavioral science, psychology, and a deep interest in anthropology, I have spent over a decade studying how individuals adapt, resist, and navigate change within structured interventions.

I hold a Master’s degree in Epidemiology from the University of Michigan and have worked across research institutions, NGOs, and evaluation agencies—specializing in compliance, adaptation, and resistance in behavior change programs. My work integrates behavioral science, intercultural studies, and philosophy to examine the psychological realities of cultural assimilation and belonging.

Areas of Expertise

Behavioral & Social Science Research

Exploring psychological and social factors influencing cultural adaptation and resistance.

Cross-Cultural Relationship Studies

Examining how minority cultures negotiate legitimacy within partnerships and family structures.

Eastern & Western Philosophical Traditions

Understanding how ideological frameworks shape values, identity, and expectations.

Through my writing, I bridge the gap between academic research and lived experience—challenging dominant narratives and amplifying voices that often go unheard.
