I’m a product designer based in San Francisco. Currently, I’m a designer at Glean working on
proactivity, artifacts, and growth. Previously, I designed at Snap.
In my free time,
Work
Proactive Intelligence

How do you help someone before they ask? As lead designer, I explored how Glean could anticipate people’s needs and turn proactive intelligence into a feeling of relief.
Redesigning the Glean homepage
I led design and product strategy for a redesign of the Glean homepage to match its growing AI capabilities. We moved from a traditional intranet-style homepage to a starting point that helped people move work forward and close more loops.
Artifacts





I led design for Artifacts from its early launch through its growth to nearly 200K weekly active users. I helped shape how people create, edit, and share work with AI.
Growth




I led Growth design during a period when Glean scaled from 25K to more than 1M weekly active users. My work focused on helping new users experience Glean’s value and build reasons to return.
Web3 at Snapchat




At Snapchat, I spent my time on two projects: Treasure, a consumer app that used Snap’s AR kit to let people bring their NFT collections into the real world, and a feature to bring NFTs as lenses inside the core Snapchat app (TechCrunch article).
