About

I'm motivated to create experiences that have a positive human impact.

I’m a product design leader who loves creating experiences that are not only engaging but drive real growth and impact. I’ve worked arcoss startups, agencies, and large-scale marketplaces, with a focus on 0-to-1 design and scaling initiatives that drive revenue and help businesses grow.

 

Most recently, I led product design at Upwork, focusing on Growth, Core, Ads & Monetization. I worked closely with Product, Engineering, and Analytics to build and launch design strategies that contributed to record-breaking revenue and better experiences for freelancers and clients around the world.  I mentor designers through ADPList and Mento Design Academy, where I meet with designers who are looking for 1:1 help in all things UX and product design.

 

Before joining the tech world, I ran a booking and promotions company, managing tours and promotional campaigns for musicians — combining my love for music and bringing people together.

 

When I’m not designing, you’ll probably find me at a live show, hiking somewhere new, or working on Play This Next — a card game I created to help people connect through meaningful songs and shared stories.
