Applying everything I learned at Artsy to making transformative healing safe, accessible, and equitable for all who seek it. Previously, founded Artsy in my college dorm room with a mission to democratize access to art. Artsy is now the world's largest online art platform and profitable with over $10B+ in inventory, hundreds of millions USD in sales, and 250+ employees. In 2019 I hired Mike Steib, who had just sold The Knot for ~$1B, as Artsy's new CEO and became Executive Chair of the board. Beyond the business numbers, we're equally proud of the culture we supported, and the many new startups, founding teams, (and even babies!) that have birthed out of the Artsy community 💜

I'm a customer-obsessed product thinker with a background in customer success, UX research, and agile delivery. After spending years in client-facing roles, I successfully transitioned into an Associate Product Manager position where I defined product requirements, worked closely with engineers and designers, and prioritised features based on user needs and business value. My passion lies in building tech products that serve real human needs. I'm now focused on continuing my journey as a Product Manager or Product Owner, ideally in a mission-driven or AI-enabled environment.

I used to herd cows, and then I pushed data around. Now I'm helping grow a startup 🌱

I am an engineering and data leader with a passion for building technology solutions for areas that span digital and real-world systems, e.g. with legal, regulatory, financial, interpersonal coordination, and physical world considerations. Every job role taken me to a new industry, requiring rapid adaptation. I thrive in situations that require judgment, critical thinking, and open-mindedness. I love learning and I am constantly looking to deepen my understanding of problem spaces and bring new insights to my teams. I have led in conditions ranging from tightly constrained resources to hypergrowth. I have a deep and diverse background in tech, beginning from when I taught myself Z80 assembly language to program my TI-83 graphing calculator at age 12. I'm an avid writer on a wide range of topics and have presented at several tech conferences. I'm also a former teacher, entrepreneur, music and audio technology graduate student, and econ minor.
