About

I’m a Analytics Lead with ~10 years of experience driving strategy for core user-facing systems, including recommendation surfaces, notifications, lifecycle growth, and GenAI products. At Credit Karma, I lead analytics and experimentation for high-scale experiences used by 100M+ users, partnering with product, engineering, and marketing to improve ranking, targeting, engagement, and long-term user value. My work focuses on building measurement frameworks that help teams navigate tradeoffs across growth, retention, monetization, and user experience. I’m most excited by roles at the intersection of product, growth, recommendation systems, and AI, where data science is used to shape strategy, not just measure outcomes.
