Energetic leader with 20+ years experience launching new products, scaling global teams, and driving operational excellence in high-growth environments. A hands-on operator known for setting strategic direction, rapid execution, and data-driven decision making. Recognized as a transformative leader with a strong commitment to talent development, culture building, and guiding organizations through change.I began my career as a management consultant in Los Angeles, leading digital transformation initiatives for major film studios and record labels, focusing on system implementations, process improvement, and organizational design. Drawn by the disruptive potential of emerging tech, I pivoted to Uber, where I spent 8 years in strategy, operations, and business development roles, helping scale the company from 500 to 25,000 employees and $10 billion ARR across mobility and delivery. Highlights include launching Uber Direct, forging first-of-its-kind partnerships for Uber Eats, incubating centralized operations teams, and leading strategic mergers and integrations.Most recently, I led operations and customer experience at Palmetto, a climate tech platform for solar and home electrification. Passionate about talent development and fostering inclusive leadership, I mentor emerging leaders through First Round, actively invest as an angel, and serve on the Solar Sister Advisory Board.Fueled by curiosity and a love of learning, I thrive on exploring new places, learning to surf, listening to books, embracing sauna culture, indulging in dim sum, and working towards my goal of being able to do pull-ups.
