Highlights of my background: 1. Startup Experience: Worked at 4 high-growth startups; employee #1 at 2 of them (Venmo, Customer.io, Etsy, Hopscotch) 2. Product Design: Studied design under IDEO Founder, David Kelley at the Stanford d.school. 3. User Researcher: Led and designed numerous ethnographic and user-research tests to uncover critical product insights (Venmo, Etsy). 4. Programmer: Lead front-end developer (Customer.io) and android developer (Venmo). 5. Strategist: Previously a corporate strategy consultant advising Fortune 500s on critical issues. 6.
