Hello!

I have 6 years of experience in marketplace products, specializing in user-centered solutions across web apps on mobile and desktop and native mobile apps. I’ve worked on net-new marketplace products, workflow optimization tools, as well as maintaining evergreen user-facing experiences. I take a collaborative approach in partnership with product and engineering, and engaging stakeholders to ensure alignment along the way.

As a people person, my favorite part of what I do is user research – engaging with end-users and getting to know them is both necessary and a joy to serve them in the best way. Ongoing, continuous research is as much a part of my routine as project-specific discovery.

When I’m not behind a computer or standing at a whiteboard, I’m with people, making bread, reading a book, or out for a run. As a lifelong learner who loves to tackle new hobbies and skills, I’m constantly on the go and trying my hand at something new (tennis, anyone?).
