Experienced design leader building core experiences for the metaverse.
I'm a Product Design Manager with a background in Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality and Artificial Intelligence. Currently, I manage an AR Design team at Meta focused on building 0->1 AR experiences and making them accessible to the world.
I enjoy building products that lie at the intersection of technological advances, business needs and needs of people. Using storytelling and design leadership, I can help teams unify towards a shared mission, and execute towards that future in the short run. I have done this by helping launching Meta's first two Social VR experiences (Horizon and Facebook Spaces), building innovative AI creativity tools, shipping identity and avatar systems for the Metaverse, launching 360 media and AR experiences on mobile, while building and managing world class design teams.
I am passionate about diversity, democratizing emerging tech and building products with ethics at the centre. I provide mentorship and workshops around these topics often.
