Community builder, sunset enthusiast, advocate
Driven by a desire for everyone to have a seat at the table.
I’m a product manager for Microsoft Planner, where I launch new experiences for managing tasks and projects. I oversaw the launch of Planner web and currently lead our team's thinking around measuring agentic quality for skills pertaining to project management.
Before that, I led the cross-platform strategy to increase adoption of Office Scripts in Microsoft Excel, the modern alternative to VBA for automating your repetitive tasks. This included releasing script buttons, as well as the new Automate tab in Excel for desktop.
Outside of work, I write Techonomic Mobility, a newsletter that spotlights the ideas, people, and organizations using technology to make life more affordable for everyday Americans. I've spoken at venues like Harvard University, Product Festival, Tufts University, Johns Hopkins University, and Ignite Seattle. I enjoy running, reading Kurt Vonnegut, and organizing eclectic walks.
