President, Halpern Research

Natalia was a thoughtful, flexible and responsive partner on a recent project from the initial bid through the final presentation. She is intelligent and insightful. Her empathy and understanding of the Hispanic culture made her a valuable resource for me and my client!
We moderated simultaneous online discussion boards in English and Spanish, and it was a delight to chat and text with her throughout the days (and evenings!) to compare and contrast our learnings.
She was appropriately sensitive to issues of special interest that were highlighted before the project began, but also picked up on additional nuances that arose in context.
She was a tremendous support during the analysis phase as we coded and analyzed approximately 1,400 responses on each board.
She was adept at reviewing (and proofing) my draft of the English-language findings, and then articulating the differences she extracted from the Spanish-language discussion.
I would be delighted to collaborate with Natalia again!

We recently were asked to conduct qualitative research among Hispanic consumers in a community that our client was looking to build a strong connection with and ultimately establish itself as go-to partner for the Hispanic community.
From the get-go, it was clear that we would need to rely on a Hispanic moderator to partner with on this research. We met Natalia through our network and knew immediately that she would be well suited for this project. Natalia was knowledgeable and very responsive to our needs and questions. She went above and beyond many times by offering suggestions or a different point of view.
The engagement was collaborative from the start, and Natalia worked with our team to develop a guide that addressed many of the nuances related to engaging with multi-cultural audiences. Her discussion guide was on point, and she assisted us with the recruiting process, which was challenging as we focused exclusively on a narrow set of zip codes.
Natalia led the groups with a level of expertise and wisdom we were hoping for. In addition, she was very relatable to the group of participants and was able to establish a rapport that got to the insights we needed.
What also struck me was her empathy. One part of the groups required the participants to write down some thoughts as part of an exercise. One participant recently had hand surgery and could not write. Natalia went next to her and helped her with the exercise and wrote down the insights on her behalf. It was a beautiful moment.
We clearly were a team – our end client also appreciated the work that Natalia provided. Her report was on the mark and required no major edits. She was asked to present the results to the senior team as her insights make the results more impactful to the business.

Natalia has been a wonderful addition to my qualitative research projects that require a Hispanic interviewer.
She partners well and is able to provide guidance regarding Hispanic screener and guide design, and to identify salient research insights unique to the Hispanic participants.
However, what makes her a great partner is who she is as a person. She is professional, flexible, conscientious and a delight to work with.

Hola Insights was extremely helpful on a recent project we conducted, where we wanted to test survey language among US-based Spanish speakers.
Natalia provided many helpful suggestions based on her experience, and collected many pieces of valuable feedback through her interviews. She was very flexible and kept all of our concerns and goals in mind throughout the project.

All the feedback we received after your speaking engagement with us was overwhelmingly positive. Your event was the most well-attended event we hosted over Hispanic Heritage month.
People found the content interesting AND useful in a business sense. It highlighted not only the importance of Hispanics/Latinos as a demographic to businesses, but also helped us understand that this group has many facets and understanding / adjusting to those differences is critical to connecting. You were also very easy to work with and receptive to our specific needs / desires for the session. In short, we loved having you share your expertise with us and are looking for reasons to bring you back!

Natalia Infante was a dream to work with. She was able to provide support for an important project requiring cultural relevance and expertise, empathy, patience, research skills, excellent customer service, and follow-up.
She was able to hit the ground running and engage with more constituents and more importantly at a deeper level, making the project a huge success. I would highly recommend Natalia to help with your research projects.

For over 10 years, I have worked with Dr. Infante-Caylor on multiple research projects targeting the low-income audience. Most of these projects involved qualitative research protocols (moderating multi-state focus groups and conducting individual interviews in Spanish and English), and formal analysis of transcripts to address research objectives.
Other projects consisted of developing training paraprofessional educators, developing new evaluation tools as well as a training DVD for moderators, e.g., assessing how completing a program affected participant’s quality of life. In all these endeavors, Dr. Infante-Caylor acted in a professional and timely manner. I thoroughly enjoy my interactions with Natalia and continue to involve her in projects whenever possible.
