What I’ve done

I have 15+ years of experience in the tech industry across design, product, engineering, and operations. I’ve worked at bigger, craft-centric tech companies like Apple and Square, as well as scrappier, more meaningful ones like Khan Academy (educating the world) and Arcadia (fighting climate change).

What I want to do next

In order of preference:

Product Designer – At an incubator or small–medium sized startup (the upper bound is flexible if there is an opportunity to work on zero-to-one type projects and/or help build and manage a team).
