ABOUT ME
ABOUT ME
I’m a product leader with a passion for building products that connect people to wellness, joy, community, and their best and bravest selves.
​
I was living 3000 miles from home when my mom got sick, and everything came into focus.
​
I left San Francisco for New York, and knew that to show up for my family, I needed to prioritize my own wellness. I paused my career in tech to become a yoga teacher, and learned how to be fully present for others.
This informed my journey in 2 ways:
​
First, I intentionally set out to blend my background in tech with my passion for wellness, resulting in a multi-year journey from scrappy startup through tremendous growth, serving wellness businesses at Booker and Mindbody.
Second, it informed my values as a leader. I lead with empathy (for both individuals on my team and for the customers I serve), and I believe that the most innovative and world-changing ideas come when you take breaks.
