Brenda Dimaya

I'm a researcher and project manager with expertise in survey design and implementation, campaign evaluation, and translating data into actionable insights. Over the past five years, I've managed national surveys, led media content analyses, and helped evaluate campaigns reaching millions of young people.

I bring this work back to what matters most to me — health equity for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander communities. Growing up in Hawaiʻi shaped how I see the gaps: who gets studied, who gets reached, and who gets left out of the data entirely. I'm working to close those gaps.
