Turned a sprawling, tribal-knowledge request process into a guided form that explains itself. Made trade-offs to fit the needs of the majority of users. Every field says what it's for and what happens downstream, so the most common requests wouldn't need a labeling engineer on call.

Made a code-heavy prototyping tool self-serve, so testing a new ad format wouldn't cost so many engineering hours. Rebuilt the editor around the things UXers would actually do themselves, and started a more dynamic conversation between designers and engineers.

Doing a hobby twice a month for a year beats not doing it at all. Baby Steps is a sticker book for the things you do sometimes, with a life-balance flower inspired by The Artist’s Way.

Looking for my next product engineering role — good work with good people, close to users.

Organizing everything, unconventional furniture, fiber arts, and thinking about people.
