I’m a hybrid social scientist, designer, and entrepreneur. Through my experiences of studying and teaching human behavioral biology (Stanford University), helping Top 10 Financial Services institutions design their CX programmes (Medallia), and working on strategic design projects spanning inclusive live music (Bestival), luxury hospitality (Belmond), circular fashion (IDEO CoLab), and relationships and health (Telefonica Alpha), I’ve developed skills to understand people and patterns, respond to needs creatively, and communicate ideas through a variety of mediums.

Founder And CeoLovewick Oct 2019 - PresentSan Francisco, UsI founded Lovewick to help couples grow and stay in love without it feeling like "work".Why? The quality of our relationships has an outsized impact on the quality of our lives, and people are struggling more than ever to build fulfilling relationships that last. Our couples app and virtual date platform make it fun and easy for busy couples to feel in love — to learn about each other and share new experiences that make them feel closer.* We’ve acquired 500,000+ registered users for <$0.05 pp* We have a 4.8 star rating in the US App Store* We have 75 Million+ organic views across TikTok and IG* Our DMs are full of stories of couples who have used Lovewick for 3+ years, navigating dating to getting engaged to getting married!* 80% of our users are under age 35; we’re resonating with GenZ and Millennial couples because we’re inclusive, optimistic, and credible without being clinical and cold I adore this work, and I’ve been living and breathing “love” for over a decade.At Stanford, I studied Human Behavioral Biology and realized that there's a ton of research that can help us cultivate more satisfying relationships and marriages, but findings are often trapped behind academic journal paywalls and rarely described in ways that feel applicable to daily life. In grad school at the Royal College of Art, I explored the future of romantic love, tech, and design. And in my personal life… let’s just say I have extensive experience with dating in the era of modern love and now use Lovewick with my own partner nearly every day.Our small team appreciates your support, and we welcome any feedback. Thank you!https://www.lovewick.com -
