I'm a product design leader. My work tends to land in messy, high-stakes systems — places where nobody's totally sure what the right direction is yet — and I try to leave behind something that still holds up years later.
I started at Concur, on TripIt and ExpenseIt, working on dense, mission-critical products. That's where I learned how to make complicated information make sense, keep cross-platform teams pointed the same way, and modernize a product without wrecking the platform strategy underneath it.
At Mozilla, I designed Firefox for iOS from zero — built the core interaction model for a privacy-first browser on a platform that fought me at every turn. That work made iOS a legitimate surface for Firefox, not an afterthought, and it changed how the org thought about mobile, trust, and safety after that.
As Director of Product Design at Thrive Global, I pushed design out of pure execution and into strategy. We turned the product from a content library into something that actually changed behavior, got leadership, behavioral science, and engineering rowing in the same direction, and left behind a real playbook for turning abstract ideas into human-centered product decisions.
At Dropbox, I worked at a bigger scale — set direction for mobile Photos and Search, and made the call on how ML-driven experiences showed up to users, with trust and clarity as the bar. A lot of what I decided there rippled into roadmap and precedent well past my own team.
Most recently, at Meta, I worked across Messenger and Horizon — one mature, one still being figured out — inside a product ecosystem where nothing moves in isolation. It made me better at working across product, engineering, and policy, and at designing carefully when a decision can move the whole platform.
If there's a through-line, it's not titles. It's precedent — making tradeoffs explicit, helping other designers do good work, leaving things clearer than I found them.
I live in Marin County (UTC-8) and work with teams everywhere. I do my best focused work remote, but I'll always make time to meet in person.
