> Chief Growth Officer @ Chess.com

Hey there! I led Growth for three of the most successful apps in the world: Duolingo, Grammarly, and Chess.com. I’d love to apply those lessons to help you scale your products and business! 🚀

At Duolingo, I led the Growth and Monetization Areas (~150 teammates) which scaled daily active users 60% YoY (25M+) and revenue 40% YoY ($500M+) through best-in-class gamification, retention, and subscriber conversion mechanics.

At Grammarly, we drove Product-Led Growth and Product-Led Sales models for our AI writing assistant with 30M+ daily users and 70,000+ business teams.

And now as the Chief Growth Officer of Chess.com, I support the growth of our 200M player community and our over 1B games played per month!

Early in my career, I built live streaming and gaming features to 20M+ global users at YouTube and led crypto product at SoFi surpassing $1B in transaction volume.

Things I can advise on:
✔️ Product-led growth, tailored to your unique situation
✔️ Expertise on the subscription business model
✔️ Benchmark metrics across acquisition, retention & monetization and experimentation to drive them up
✔️ Best practices for hiring & scaling growth teams
✔️ Advice on building useful features with Generative AI
✔️ Startup advising and investing
