As Senior Director of Product Design at Travelers, I oversee product design and research while leading strategic design initiatives for product innovation within their key Business Insurance segment.

Travelers protects people every day, and when it matters most.

Previously, I led design for ads across YouTube's core feed, watch, search, and discover surfaces, creating horizontal experiences that support YouTube's free model through design systems, tooling, and 0-to-1 efforts that boosted viewer engagement and revenue. Before that, I directed Twitter's Design Systems team, growing a cross-disciplinary team of designers and design engineers that enhanced both revenue and consumer products. I also spearheaded product design for the ESPN app within Disney's Digital Technology Group, delivering engaging digital experiences for live sports and news.

Throughout my career, I've driven digital transformations and created products for globally recognized brands including Amazon, Yahoo!, and CNN. My passion for design fuels my commitment to crafting beautiful, user-friendly experiences that exceed business goals and leverage smart technology. As a design thinker and storyteller, I measure success through impactful outcomes and seamless usability.

I thrive on building diverse teams, fostering collaboration across disciplines, and championing a positive culture that drives innovation. My goal is to continuously form cross-collaborative relationships with product managers, user researchers, engineers, creative teams, and executive stakeholders to be the connective tissue and enabler for great work.
