I’ve spent my career at the intersection of consumer technology and complex systems — as a product manager at a sports tech startup, Meta, and the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, and as a published researcher with Cambridge University Press.

The work has ranged widely. Revenue-critical ad systems at scale. Trust and safety infrastructure for one of the world’s largest platforms. Education tools built alongside teachers and school leaders. Different domains, same underlying challenge: high stakes, real consequences, and users who depend on the product to actually work.

At Meta, I was one of two PMs leading Facebook App Ads, and later led cross-functional trust and safety work across organic content, recommendations, Live Video, and ads. At CZI, I worked with educators to give school leaders real visibility into what was happening inside their buildings.
