I’m a data-driven product marketer, startup operator, and storyteller. Currently, I’m a Product Marketing Manager at Lattice. In my role, I ensure Lattice products meet the needs of our customers and are launched successfully into the market.

I started my career in 2015 at LinkedIn after graduating from Northwestern’s Medill School of Journalism. Moving from Chicago to SF to NYC in less than a year was a trip (and a half), but it gave me the chance to live in three amazing cities. In my 4.5 years at LinkedIn, I worked with our sales team to help make global customers who hire on LinkedIn more productive and successful.

In December 2021, I graduated from NYU Stern’s Tech MBA program. Most recently, I was Chief of Staff at Sounder—a Series A startup that helps media companies and ad marketplaces grow their audio businesses through powerful data and insights. In my role, I led product marketing, brand marketing, business operations, and investor relations (and everything else at the company without a title).

In my free time, you can find me writing my newsletter (Gridology), making silly AI-generated art, taking too many pictures of my doggo, or acting as commissioner to an overly competitive fantasy football league.
