I am a quantitative researcher and data scientist with 15+ years of experience leading research into human behavior, technology, and product development. Currently, I am a Senior User Experience Researcher with Google working on Search and AI. Prior, I was a Staff UX Researcher and product-team lead on Meta’s Trust & Safety team. My research shapes product strategy and measurement in areas such as AI, content ranking, growth, and safety. For instance, my work guided Facebook’s 3-dot menu design and addition of the “Interested/Not Interested” feature. Having formally and informally served across several functions, my expertise bridges user research, data science, product management, and team leadership. Prior to my work in tech, I was an academic psychologist and neuroscientist specializing in social behavior, attitudes, cognition, and personality.
