Snapchat

I was the first product design hire at Snapchat in 2013 and worked there for almost 6 years.

I got the chance to work on and ship lots of great products while I was there.

Quibi

I left Snap in November of 2018 to join Quibi as the first product designer. We built a team and product there that I'm incredibly proud of.

Route

I joined Route in November of 2020 to lead and grow an incredibly hardworking and talented Design org. During my time we built powerful tools for merchants and an useful app for shoppers, growing revenue to over $120M in ARR and raising 3 rounds of funding that valued the business at over $1.5B.

Design Advising

Outside of work-work, I spend time working with founders honing their design strategy and connecting them with talent.

In tandem, I invest in early stage companies through my role at Deck Point Capital.

If you have an interesting opportunity for investment or would like to talk about design advising, shoot me an email.
