Product Manager passionate about connecting people through technology.
Previous experience with EdTech, Big Data, AI, gaming, and Python.
After realizing my passion for the end-user impact of tech while studying CS in college, I started my Product Management journey back in 2016 as an intern at Microsoft. I've since worked in various areas of the company, working on Big Data platforms for Azure, Python tools, and Jupyter Notebooks. I migrated over to GitHub in 2021 to work on educational tools for teaching CS with GitHub. Over the past five years, I've had the opportunity to present at numerous conferences, lead a product from its inception to first 100,000 users, and constantly learn from those around me.
Outside of work, I live in Seattle and love to do all the classic Pacific Northwest things. Getting outside with skiing, hiking, and intramural soccer. Stretching my creativity with photography and improv. And of course, getting Seattle-cultured by exploring breweries. I spend a lot of time with my Nintendo Switch, and stream on Twitch. I also foster dogs and cats, and am hoping to adopt one of my own this year! And finally, as a Cleveland native and UMich alum, I would be remiss if I didn't mention my love of the Cleveland Browns and Michigan football (Go Blue!).
