Leading design for end-user experiences on Slack's Platform pillar, with a focus on Workflows and other unreleased future-facing products.

Responsible for Spreadsheets and Data Mentions. Led direction on what would eventually become Slack Lists.

Advisor helping migrate Sketch design libraries to Figma

Did fundamental work defining the scope and direction of the nascent Prototyping pillar. Shipped first versions of Animations and led unreleased R&D on how to bring Design and Prototyping closer together.

First design hire at Pinterest. Worked on almost all areas of the product, including Profiles, Rich Pins and Place Pins. Helped build team from 1 person (me) to a robust org of almost 30 people.

I helped revamp the end-user experience for Workflows at Slack, implementing previews, rich details, a better search experience, and the first discovery experience. I also created and proliferated a design framework for users to create workflows more easily with templates.

I did early product and design exploration for the product that would eventually become Slack Lists.

I helped design a framework that allowed Quip customers to easily use Salesforce data in a freeform, natural way inside of their documents. Customers could also make edits inline to share record data back to Salesforce.

I helped work on a 0 → 1 effort to build a Slack competitor inside of Quip that would seamlessly integrate rich document editing, team collaboration, and Salesforce data.

I helped reset the direction of the Prototyping team at Figma. I primarily helped with designs for transitions, but spent most of my time on R&D for novel implementations of scrolling in prototypes and prototype viewer redesigns.

I worked on various projects supporting the Growth team at Pinterest, redesigning signup flows to increase conversion and creating new rich widgets for showcasing pins, boards and profiles across the Web.

I worked on various projects in Pinterest's Discovery pillar, such as supporting the launch of Guided Pins and coming up with novel layouts for increasing the prominence of Suggested Pins.

I built a Javascript framework that allowed designers to quickly iterate on layouts for individual pins. Designers could also use PinKit to rapidly prototype collection pages with real data from the API.

Place Pins were an extension of the Rich Pins framework that allowed geolocation data to be displayed alongside pins. Boards with Place Pins would display them on an interactive map to make trip planning simple.

I designed Rich Pins, a system that shows helpful information from the source website for different types of content. We launched with Recipe Pins, Movie Pins and Product Pins.

I helped make the first version of Analytics, with a focus on helping creators and small businesses understand how they were performing on Pinterest.

Allows users to create boards that were hidden from the public for private planning and collaboration, while not disrupting the social nature of the platform.

I designed the first comprehensive redesign of Pinterest's user profiles, introducing board covers and focusing more heavily on letting users express their identities through the platform.

As the first design hire at Pinterest, I did a lot of work on various core experiences of the site across desktop and mobile, including board creation, repinning, commenting and more.

My first project was designing and developing the first mobile site for Pinterest.

I did competitive analysis and research and delivered the first comprehensive redesign of the School of Design's website in ten years. This project began as my final project and was later sold to the School for their use.
