Selected work
A few of the messy problems I’ve helped teams untangle, and what changed because of it.
Intuit · Industry Solutions
Building the platform behind QuickBooks’ $50M industry goal
Product Design Manager · Team of 2 → 6 · 2025–2026
Five industry teams were drifting toward five separate products. I led design across the portfolio and aligned Product, Engineering and executives on a shared platform model, with reusable capabilities underneath and industry-specific experiences on top.
Chegg · Design Systems
Refreshing Chegg’s brand and design system, to 78% adoption
Senior Product Design Manager · Founded the team · 2019–2023
I directed a full brand refresh through the lens of Horizon, Chegg’s design system, raising the bar for visual and interaction quality across web and native. Then I built the governance to make it stick: 1,000+ accessible components, used by 40+ designers and 100+ engineers.
Nextdoor · Monetization
Rebuilding Nextdoor’s ads platform and uncovering $200M+
Senior Product Design Manager · Design & Research · 2024
I led design and research as Ads Manager became a self-serve platform for small businesses, contributing to 12% QoQ revenue growth. Discovery I led with Sales, Operations and Data Science surfaced a $200M+ opportunity in micro-businesses.
Chegg · Product Quality
Making product quality a company-wide OKR
Senior Product Design Manager · Cross-functional · 2022–2023
Quality was treated as a design opinion, and it was easy to deprioritize. I introduced scorecards, named owners and recurring reviews that turned UX debt into prioritized work, and made quality a company-level OKR.
Chegg · Growth
Unifying Chegg’s notifications to lift conversion 27%
Senior Product Design Manager · Growth · 2021
Alerts from different teams were competing for students’ attention. I led the team in defining one system for priority, timing and relevance, which cut the noise and increased conversion by 27%.
Every one of these got messy before it got simple. Ask me about that part.
