About Me

Get to know me!


I’m a graduate of Flatiron School’s Software Engineering program, where I gained comprehensive knowledge and practical skills in web development. Prior to that, I worked in tech for 5 years and studied Communications at the University of Michigan, with a certificate in Sales & Marketing from the Ross School of Business.


In addition to my technical proficiency, I bring previous experience that sets me apart. I spent most of my career at Braze, a customer engagement software. I worked closely with our technical customers to enhance their utilization of our software, and this gave me a deep understanding of customer needs and the key business outcomes they drove with their tech stack.


Following my time at Braze, I was the sole product manager at a B2C travel start-up. I owned the development of various features by conducting industry research, identifying customer pain points, scoping out features, defining product requirements, and bringing the final product to market.


Combining my technical expertise from the Flatiron School with my previous experience in tech, I will bring a unique perspective to any software engineering role. My strong focus on creating user-centric solutions enables me to effectively translate customer requirements into tangible products.
