Hey there!

I recently left my role working on innovation in mobility & future-of-transportation tech at Goodyear's San Francisco Innovation Lab (where I was Product Manager / Sr. Designer of the AndGo by Goodyear platform) in order to make time to figure out what I want to focus on next... and seeking to do everything I can to impact the climate catastrophe and crucial upcoming election.

To do this, I'm working with various local environmental advocacy groups, finishing up my fellowship with the Clean Energy Leadership Institute, and studying foresight, transportation planning and cities while exploring new roles. In addition, I serve as Chair of my city's Arts & Culture Commission and also enjoy biking, kiteboarding, sailing, traveling, reading, screenprinting and making ceramic art.

I'm now interested in PM or Sr. Designer roles as I'm motivated by building products people use and love and I've found opportunities to make meaningful impact in both roles.

Originally from the East Bay, I was involved in local sustainability efforts before heading to Montréal to study at McGill University (BA Anthropology, Environment minor). After graduating, I managed the Students' Society's building and hundreds of student clubs and services as McGill's VP Clubs & Services before moving back home to the Bay Area, where I soon realized I needed to learn about tech to make a home here. I attended all the tech events I could find, including my first hackathon, where I pitched a concept and led a world-class team to win the event. This crash course in entrepreneurship led me to the world of UX research and design, and I've now owned end-to-end full-stack product design processes at fast-growing early-stage startups as well as Fortune 500 innovation labs.

Seeking more involvement in product strategy, visioning and roadmapping than I'd found in pure UI Design roles, I attended California College of the Arts' innovative MBA program, which emphasizes design strategy and technology, and grew into a Product Manager role. I've also completed Product Management and Agile Project Management coursework from UC Berkeley Extension and Stanford Executive Education. I'm now most passionate about making an impact as a "full-stack" product strategist, whether that's found in a designer or product manager role.

A bit more about the different projects I'm involved with now:

• Climate Action & Policy: This is my top priority. To do this, I've been doing a ton of research into local groups and how I can be effective; so far, I'm working with 350 Bay Area's Mobilizing Team, getting trained with the Climate Reality Project, and am getting involved with Sunrise Bay Area.
• Democratic Organizing in Contra Costa County: I'm a volunteer on the field strategy team of our county's Coordinated Campaign to support progressive candidates up and down the ballet. It's been an amazing learning experience for me — a crash course in phone bank captaining and everything that happens behind the scenes to endorse and support candidates.
• Transportation Planning Graduate Certificate: I've been designing my own education around my passion for transportation/urban planning for a while now, and was so excited to find this program at San Jose State where I could formalize a foundational learning experience in this space. With online classes one night a week, it's an awesome
• Future-of-Mobility & Clean Energy Events & Conferences: I'm so happy to have more time to plug into all the amazing conversations happening on these key interests! My fellowship with the Clean Energy Leadership Insitute just ended (and was an incredible experience) and I'm excited to continue to be involved as an alum there too.
• Arts & Culture Commission: The now over two years I've served on this commission have been a fascinating introduction to city governance and programming, and now as Chair I'm more involved in directing the agenda and our priorities.
• General learning and exploration: I feel so lucky to have this time to focus on learning and exploring what I want to do next. In addition to the bigger projects above, I've also been catching up on coursera courses and other trainings in my professional development backlog.

I also enjoy biking, kiteboarding, sailing, traveling, reading, screenprinting and making ceramic art.
