Aarre Laakso
I am a versatile PhD, writer, and data scientist with a deep background in cognitive science and related disciplines. I have contributed to more than 30 major international development evaluations and 100 policy and sector reports for the Inter-American Development Bank, the World Bank Group, and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. Drawing on expertise in cognition, logic, and storytelling, I enhance the clarity, rigor, and impact of written work—helping institutions turn evidence into insight and insight into action. I also create conceptually elegant illustrations and compelling information graphics that transform complex analytical ideas and large data sets into intuitive and engaging visualizations. Combining analytical depth with communicative precision, I make knowledge more coherent, accessible, and useful.
