Summary
Davi Moreira is a policy-focused academic and data-savvy program director with a decade of experience applying quantitative methods and text-as-data techniques to public policy monitoring and evaluation. He currently leads the Daniels Undergraduate Business Honors Program at Purdue University, after faculty roles at Emory, UC San Diego, and multiple appointments in Brazil. His work blends Political Methodology and Data Science—designing M&E systems, surveys, dashboards, and project evaluations for institutions including the World Bank.
