Work Experience

2020 — 2023
San Francisco

My primary focus was transforming Airtable from a conventional grid interface to an app building and deploying tool. I also developed enterprise-grade apps built on Airtable's platform.

2021 — 2022
San Francisco

Through an incredible growth period at Airtable I joined leadership to manage the App Builder and Core Surfaces (design systems, home, and mobile) teams.

2016 — 2020
San Francisco

Keeping up the tradition of complex and challenging industries, education is an area sorely in need of talent and dedication. I rebuilt the design team through a down round, reported to the VP of Product, and helped transform the business from a consumer communication app to a districtwide tech platform.

2015 — 2016
San Francisco

First designer at a seed stage startup. Hey, it's the Bay. Grew my love for fast-paced, high trust building environments in the fascinating world of mortgages and finance.

2013 — 2015
San Francisco

Embraced complexity as a platform designer. Created the first declarative no-code tool for business processes called Process Builder. Did a brief stint on the Analytics team.

Side Projects

2014

Some friends and I made an ephemeral messaging iOS app. You can't download it anymore, but I think it holds up pretty well. The verbose launch writeup is attached in case the link dies.
