Development Strategist. Grace Cole is a stay-curious, impact-driven professional with a strong foundation in mixed-methods social science research. At English Hudson, she draws on her analytical strengths, love of language and statistics, and project management skills to help clients refine their strategies and data practices. Grace deeply believes in the transformative power of data — not just as numbers, but as context and clarity that catalyzes mission-aligned action. To her, data reveals the stories that matter, surfaces insights that drive change, and empowers mission-driven teams to lead with purpose. 

Grace’s commitment to community-rooted, evidence-based change — particularly her passion for improving opportunities and outcomes for Black and Brown children — is shaped by her experiences volunteering with various youth-serving nonprofit organizations.

Grace is known for her grounded, joyful energy and her ability to find the good in others and in life. A proud Mid-Atlantic native, she pursues movement for wellbeing and enjoys exploring diverse foods, cultures, and nature — always with an eclectic soundtrack in the background.
