A bit about me . . .
I’m a designer, product-person and improv comedian from Seattle, Washington. I’m currently exploring new opportunities after 4 years of living in Europe where I worked in in startups, accelerators & university labs.
I graduated from Stanford’s Product Design program in 2021 and moved to Zürich, Switzerland to join ETHZ spin-off, Sparkademy. There, I managed product and programs teaching innovation, design, and creative thinking to changemakers in big organizations like Cargill and Siemens.
After 2 years in Zürich, I moved to Berlin to work with early-stage startups at Techstars which turned into co-founding my own startup. For the past year, I worked on building Once Strangers, an in-person dating app powered by community hosts, creatives & small businesses in Berlin.
I’ve had lots of side-quests turn side hustles, but my favorite is teaching improv classes and workshops. I get to help students embrace their creativity, make mistakes joyfully, and support others on stage and in life. As a long time improvisor and actor, I love the process of working with others to create honest and unexpected stories that bring an audience to the edge of their seat.
