Noah serves as Director of Foster Insights, a child welfare data analytics team based at the University of Chicago. His team partners with state child welfare agencies across the country to translate complex administrative data into actionable insights that support family, kin, and community connections for children. His work around adverse placements has informed discussion on child well-being measures at the state and federal level. Trained in applied mathematics but grounded in education, Noah believes data are only useful if they are understandable and usable by the people doing the work. Foster Insights regularly shares findings through webinars and working groups, sparking discussion on topics ranging from kinship care to placement decision-making to the basics of AI. Noah brings curiosity, clarity, and enthusiasm to conversations about how data can support better outcomes for children and families.
