Hi/¡Hola! I’m Rachel Bloom-Pojar, a bilingual research consultant and writer.

I help mission-driven organizations and research teams connect qualitative research with storytelling to strengthen programs, partnerships, and funding. I also support community-engaged researchers with one-on-one coaching for writing. With 15 years of experience in higher education and over $150,000 secured in grant funding, I’ve led community-engaged projects alongside promotores de salud, reproductive health educators, and community health leaders. Those collaborations shaped my belief in storytelling as a tool for justice, connection, and change.

I also write Field Notes, a Substack newsletter about navigating the spaces between writing, research, and meaningful work.
