I am a digital product builder who focuses on the intersection of design, engineering and business strategy.
Previously, I led the digital product and design team at Glossier, worked on a myriad of efforts and product teams at Facebook, and was one of the first designers on the Instagram team.
When not building things, I like to spend time helping others with their careers and their teams, and advising their businesses.
Here is a brief history of what I have been up to professionally in the last decade and a half.

Taking a break to do some consulting, advising, investing, and playing with some new ideas. If you’d like to chat, please reach out!
As Head of Digital Product and Design at Glossier, I helped transform the digital product management and design team, by hiring some amazing people to the product and design team, focusing the team on driving measurable results, and creating a brand new design system.
At Facebook I worked at the intersection of design and product strategy, leading a re-design of the search engine, supporting multiple efforts on the local team (including a prototype of hyperlocal with bluetooth beacons), and leading the product experimentation team.
As one of the earliest members of the Instagram team, I worked as a designer (and sometimes engineer) — most notably on: redesigning instagram.com (including our move to React), and re-designing for iOS7.
As design co-founder, I led all of the design and creative efforts, as well as general company strategy — shifting us through our transformation from a web studio to focus on apps and games across web and mobile.
