I enjoy launching and scaling mission driven products and teams: Airbnb grew from <100 to >5,000 employees and from ~100K to >200M guests during my time; Course Hero evolved into its parent company Learneo after acquiring seven companies in the productivity and learning space. I'm currently focusing on bringing safer, cleaner, more enjoyable mobility — for everyone — to cities at Zoox. I genuinely like people. - I am always recruiting, love coaching team members, have managed managers (up to ~200 campus ambassadors at Course Hero), have managed remotely and across all time zones, actively participate in employee resource groups to empower women, parents and immigrants. - I believe in the importance of dogfooding products and frequently engage with users and stakeholders from truck drivers trying to avoid parking tickets, singles who are tired of swiping, Airbnb hosts willing to testify at city hearings and students impacted by COVID shutting down their campuses and livelihoods. - I’ve reported into CEOs, CTOs, country managers, heads of business affairs, marketing and government relations and am still in touch with them. I take an entrepreneurial approach to everything I do and don’t give up. - I won my Green Card in the lottery at the 8th attempt. - I partnered with governments and community stakeholders to legitimize home sharing in Europe via model legislation. - I led Airbnb’s response to the European refugee crisis by working with cross functional stakeholders, governments and nonprofits laying the foundation for today's Airbnb.org.
