Aspect Research + Evaluation has played a critical role in evaluating our programs and initiatives. One of her many strengths is asking questions that not only inform her evaluation work, but also help shape our thinking about program design. Her thorough data analyses and crystal-clear visualizations are digestible and actionable for everyone from teachers to organizational leaders.

I have worked with various researchers and evaluators in my 20 years in the field, and Shelley's work consistently stands out for her thoughtful approach backed by up-to-date research, high quality and attention to detail and responsiveness, meeting deadlines and keeping me on track. Shelley is the professional that every organization would be lucky to work with and I have no reservations whatsoever in giving her my highest recommendation.

Aspect Research + Evaluation did an outstanding job with the evaluation for one of Washington State's MSP projects that I oversee as state coordinator. Shelley worked collaboratively with the project team and created a Summary Report that was exceptional. It was clear, organized, and told the story of the impacts from the project work.

We wouldn’t have met any of our goals without Dr Stromholt. From data collection design to analysis and project planning, Shelley gave us new ways to think about what we were trying to accomplish AND gave us the tools to do it. She was especially insightful in developing research synopses that combined many kinds of data into a cohesive story. So much so that we turned that work into a publication that is central to what we want to do going forward. Aspect R+E is part of every grant application I write.

We stand in solidarity with First Peoples of this land by paying a monthly “Real Rent”. All funds go directly to Duwamish Tribal Services to support the revival of Duwamish culture and the vitality of the Duwamish Tribe.
