While at New America I have been focused on researching the reality of government service delivery, innovation and design. If I have learned one thing from a career in research, it’s that your findings are never going to be what you expect them to be. Which is why research is so much fun. Most of these papers reflect that surprise — I always like to be honest about what our expectations were, and what the reality turned out to be.
