I am a quantitative researcher with 15+ years of experience leading research into human behavior and technology. I was most recently a Staff User Experience Researcher and product team lead on Meta’s Trust & Safety team for nearly 4 years, where I focused on topics such as content ranking, settings, AI, safety, well-being, growth and churn. My expertise bridges product strategy, user research, data science, team leadership, and cross-functional collaboration. My subject-matter expertise in human behavior follows my prior career as an academic psychologist & neuroscientist specializing in social behavior, attitudes, cognition, and personality.
