Blending my background in visual design and business, I thrive at the intersection of product goals and visual detail — always delivering strategic thinking and high-quality experiences. A team player at heart, my superpower is bringing people together regardless of their function or organization.
As a founding member of YouTube Shorts, I've led the design and strategy behind its ecosystem growth, contributing to its rise from 0 → 2B+ monthly users and 200B daily views.
In my personal time, you'll find me exploring new coffee shops or catching waves in the summer ☕️ 🌊
