Currently working on 1stCollab, the best platform for brands and creators to collaborate on influencer marketing campaigns.

Most recently, I was Head of Discovery product there where I led our Home, Search, and Pins teams and was responsible for user engagement. Before that, I was a tech lead on the Recommendations team.
