Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States

Currently I lead brand and creative at Life360. With a growing monthly active user base of 83M+ people worldwide, Life360 is the world's #1 app for everyday family life.

In 2013 I cofounded Canary to make it easier for people to connect with and protect their homes. We created the first smart, affordable, and user-friendly home security product in an industry that had long lacked design-driven innovation.

Before starting Canary, I was one of the initial team members at General Assembly where I led product design and digital brand experience. While at GA I helped the company scale from a single co-working space in NYC to a global network of campuses and top provider of online educational content in the areas of technology, business, and design.

Prior to General Assembly, I worked in Los Angeles providing design and strategic direction for non-profit clients and arts organizations such as the LA Stage Alliance, United States Artists, The Broad Stage, LA’s Best, and Cedars-Sinai.
