About

I’m Kristen Miller, welcome! This is the personal companion to my professional work at Community Research Design. Here you get the behind-the-scenes: life in the field of question design, politics, garden updates, and the Lesbian Trad Wife Podcast I make with my friend of over 50 years (!), Amy Moore. Less rigor, more real.

Want to learn more about my professional work?

Subscribe (free) to my Community Research Design substack, where I think out loud about question design and sampling for community research — the methods, the real dilemmas, and the work as it happens. It’s also a home for displaced federal researchers who want to keep that expertise alive.
