I’m a news product professional with 10+ years of experience, both in newsrooms and for tech companies.

For the past 8 years, I’ve worked for Google, building features and experiences for Search, the Google News app — and its predecessor Google Play Newsstand, — and elsewhere (Google Podcasts, YouTube, Discover, etc.)

My role has progressed over the years, from joining as a curator to taking on content and product strategy projects to becoming a program manager.

And I’ve learned a lot: how to drive product development from idea to launch to landing, how to work closely with engineers and flex my more technical muscles, and how to communicate effectively to audiences ranging from executives to project teams, just to name a few examples.

I’ve also had the unique opportunity to share my news industry expertise with Google’s product teams. My journalistic experience includes:

• Reporting for The Boston Globe, where I analyzed, visualized, and told narratives around data, such as examinations of the state lottery funding formula, bicycle fatalities, and Boston's growing young adult demographic

• Working as a local news digital producer for the Globe's sister website Boston.com, where we grew our network of local news websites, developed a public transportation vertical, and produced several data-driven special projects

• Participating in Boston.com's live coverage of the Boston Marathon bombings and their aftermath; this coverage of the bombings ultimately won a Pulitzer Prize and an Online Journalism Award

• Reporting for the Erie (Pa.) Time-News, with a focus on crime and breaking news, and expanding the newsroom’s digital capabilities

• Contributing to publications including ABC News, the Huffington Post, and public media organizations, such as KPCC and KCET

More details about these roles and projects can be found in my resume.
