Summary
As Vice President of Product, Advertising and Media, I am responsible for driving innovation in ad technology, enhancing audience targeting and measurement, and driving the evolution of streaming ad formats to maximize engagement and revenue. Previously, I led product management, design, and research at Nextdoor. Prior to that I led multiple product areas at Twitter, including self service revenue products, organic business features, and Twitter shopping. My previous experience in digital ads included native and video ads syndication at Yahoo and mobile AdSense at Google. My specialities are building strong cross-functional teams, 0->1 products where an org chart gets in the way, and scaling revenue solutions.
