Head of Growth at Patreon, where I’ve built and scaled a 60+ person team from the ground up — across product, engineering, design, marketing, data science, and machine learning.

Previously, I led the Consumer Growth team at Instagram, overseeing the product groups working on User Acquisition, Activation, Retention.

Prior to Instagram/Meta, I was a Product Manager at Twitter (pre-IPO), where I worked on international growth across key markets like India, Brazil, and Japan. 

As an angel, I’ve invested in and advised 25+ startups over the last few years.

Things I can advise on: 
✔️ Guidance on product led growth strategies
✔️ How to build a growth discipline and team at your company
✔️ Tips on how to solve the cold start problem for social and marketplace products.
✔️ Best practices for customer acquisition — paid and organic
✔️ How to grow internationally through product, business development and marketing.
✔️ Fundraising from VCs, focused on a growth story.

Excited to share my experience with founders and help them scale their businesses!
