“SIMPLICITY IS ABOUT SUBTRACTING THE OBVIOUS AND ADDING THE MEANINGFUL."

ABOUT ME

ABOUT ME

I’m a product leader with a passion for building products that connect people to wellness, joy, community, and their best and bravest selves.

I was living 3000 miles from home when my mom got sick, and everything came into focus.

I left San Francisco for New York, and knew that to show up for my family, I needed to prioritize my own wellness. I paused my career in tech to become a yoga teacher, and learned how to be fully present for others.

 

This informed my journey in 2 ways:

First, I intentionally set out to blend my background in tech with my passion for wellness, resulting in a multi-year journey from scrappy startup through tremendous growth, serving wellness businesses at Booker and Mindbody.

 

Second, it informed my values as a leader. I lead with empathy (for both individuals on my team and for the customers I serve), and I believe that the most innovative and world-changing ideas come when you take breaks. 

EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE
  • I studied Computer Science at Brown University.

  • I grew professionally from Engineer to Designer to Product Manager to Product Leader at Interwoven, Salesforce, Booker and Mindbody.

  • I started my journey as an independent consultant in 2022.

  • I stretch my limits daily,

HOW I HELP
  • I uncover unmet needs and opportunities.

  • I work with you to translate ideas into buildable products.

  • I create product vision, strategy and principles to help you focus on what's most important.

  • I mentor and support individuals and teams, so they can be immensely successful without me. 

  • I roll up my sleeves and help with product management, design and/or marketing execution.

  • I have a passion for simplifying complexity and building beautiful products.
