About me

My work spans conversational AI, advertising, streaming, commerce, and global payments. At Amazon, I shape advertiser and customer experiences across Ads and Prime Video. Before that, I led content design for Mastercard’s global payment products.

I came to content design through sociology and writing, and I’m as interested in how systems shape behavior as I am in the words themselves. I’m curious, direct, and happiest in the middle of a complicated problem—asking questions, finding the structure, and making the experience easier to understand.

My work has taken me through enterprise software, global payments, streaming, advertising, and conversational AI. I tend to get involved early, while teams are still deciding what a product is and how it should behave, then stay with the work through research, review, and launch.

I’ve worked as both a manager and an individual contributor, leading workshops and critiques, mentoring designers, and building practices other teams could use. I’m now exploring hands-on Staff and Principal roles where I can help shape the product and stay close to the writing.

How I work

Four habits
  1. Understand the product and the decision

    Before I write, I make sure I understand what the product does, what the customer is trying to accomplish, and what information they need.

  2. Design for the actual context

    I account for how and where someone will use the product—whether they’re navigating with a remote, watching a live game, building an ad campaign, or trying to complete a payment.

  3. Bring the right people in early

    I bring in product, design, research, engineering, science, legal, and privacy early enough for the findings to change the product.

  4. Test, measure, and make it reusable

    I use research and experiment data to challenge assumptions, then turn what works into guidance and patterns other teams can reuse.
