Versatile and resilient Technical Product Manager with a knack for strategy, communications, branding, coaching, and partnerships - usually found working in startups at the intersection of people, technology, education and justice. A decade of global experience positioning executives and startups for success launching products in new markets. Also a certified Scrum Master, Product Owner, and Project Management Professional (PMP). My work has been featured at conferences like SxSW Interactive, TED, TechCrunch Disrupt, Summit Series, University Recruiting Conference, and Talent42 and on publications like Quartz, Vox, the LA Times, the Times of India. I’m a proud On Deck, Transcend, and StartingBloc fellow and alum of Write of Passage and Demand Curve.Outside work, you’ll usually find me pining over interior design and architecture, making the best salads, practicing pilates, playing soccer, binging true crime podcasts, and obsessing over all the personalities and breeds at the dog park. According to Spotify, I've been in the top 10% of Taylor Swift listeners worldwide for several years running. I’ve traveled to 30+ countries on every continent except Antarctica, lived in India, Singapore, Bali and Brazil, and will be on my way to become a Brazilian and Italian citizen soon.
