I previously served as Director of Product at The Atlantic where I led a team building interactive products on site and apps.

Before that, I was a Staff PM at The Washington Post where I focused on digital election coverage. I led The Post’s product strategy for the 2024 Election including live election results, voter demographic analysis, and The Post's first-ever iOS live activity. I also led our product strategy and rebuild of the Recipes product line.

I completed my undergraduate degree at Northwestern University where I studied Computer Science and Creative Writing and graduated with honors. My capstone project, a forty-page narrative poetry collection called "The Escapist," was the recipient of the Mary Kinzie Prize for Poetry. I was also a four-year member of Northwestern’s triathlon team and served as captain my senior year.

In my free time, I race marathons and ultramarathons, blog about my backpacking trips, and go on a lot of long road trips. I also still write some fiction.
