About Me
I live by the motto the best way to predict the future is to build it. Throughout my career at companies like Instagram, Facebook, and Coursera, I’ve moved from a mission of empowerment to a focus on the long-term impact of the systems we build. I’ve learned that designing for millions requires more than just craft—it requires leadership, influence, and a deep understanding of business. I use my voice to ensure we’re creating products that prioritize humanity and thoughtful design. Outside the office, I’m always dreaming up something big. I have an endless list “potential” hobbies—from furniture design to sailing—but for now, my two young sons keep me plenty busy. Between the family adventures, you’ll find me hiking the redwoods, designing my home spa, or dreaming of the day I trade my desk for an old wood boat.
