Emerald Adjei

Hej!

I'm Emerald, but friends call me Enya. I'm a researcher, analyst, product designer and manager working remotely with a focus on designing impactful, evidence-based solutions for organizations. My passion lies in collaborating with underserved communities to co-create programs and products that address their unique challenges while driving sustainable development. I specialise in blending on-the-ground research with strategic project management. Through qualitative and quantitative methods, I uncover root causes of social and economic challenges, translating data into actionable insights.

Using tools like Excel and R, I conduct data analysis that informs program design and policy development. As a project manager, I thrive at the intersection of research, strategy, and execution. I lead cross-functional teams, aligning goals and driving development from concept to implementation. My approach is centered on fostering community engagement, leveraging data-driven insights, and ensuring that every initiative supports meaningful, user-focused outcomes. I am committed to advancing inclusive, research-driven solutions that create lasting social impact.

When I'm not working, you'll likely find me in a yoga class, embracing the calm and focus it brings. I'm also passionate about chasing waterfalls — there's something magical about their power and serenity. Traveling is another joy of mine, whether exploring new destinations abroad or discovering hidden gems closer to home. These experiences keep me grounded, inspired, and ready to tackle new challenges.

I am committed to advancing inclusive, research-driven solutions that create lasting social impact.
