MARY HOYT KEARNS, PhD
Applied developmental psychologist | Human-centered mixed-methods researcher
HI! I'M MARY, AND I HAVE A PASSION FOR RESEARCH
I have always been curious about what makes people tick, and this led me to pursue a PhD in Applied Developmental Psychology and MS in Research Methods & Statistical Analysis. In school, I learned how to design and execute high quality research to understand the needs and opinions of people across the lifespan with a sensitivity to cultural, gender, and generational differences.
​
This background prepared me to be an empathetic, full-cycle, mixed-method, applied behavioral scientist. Collaborating with cross-functional teams, and translating complex data into easy-to-understand insights and actionable recommendations brings me joy.
My experience includes a wide array of settings and industries, including client-side and supply side research in tech, marketing research, healthcare, government contracting, and academic settings. And I bring a unique blend of analytic, creative, and entrepreneurial skills. Plus I'm a registered Vinyasa yoga and meditation teacher who enjoys designing websites.​
I look forward to the opportunity to support your company’s research goals!
