Madeline Sizemore

Driven by a passion for international development and humanitarian assistance, I am dedicated to work that supports vulnerable communities and fosters long-term, impactful solutions. My experience as a Senior Program Coordinator and Business Development Associate at The Kaizen Company centered on supporting USAID-funded projects, advancing DEIA initiatives, and promoting strategic development efforts for localization, equity, and sustainability. I contributed to multi-million dollar USAID projects that strengthened organizational development, designed technological innovations, and enhanced social services in countries like Jordan, Djibouti, and Uganda I hold dual degrees in Anthropology and Political Science from the University of Delaware with minors in History and Global Studies. My academic research, including an article on U.S. refugee resettlement policies published in Humanitarian Organization, a peer-reviewed academic journal, complements my practical experience and fosters my passion for cultural exchange, humanitarianism, and continuous learning. I am eager to apply my skills in research, policy, and program management to contribute to impactful initiatives that create positive change. Let’s connect!
