About Me
I'm exploring how to make technology products work better for people at Columbia University's Data Science Institute. By combining behavioral science, UI design, experimentation, and causal inference, I study how people interact with technology and how products can be improved in a scientifically rigorous way. Previously, as a Senior Technical Product Manager at Amazon, I applied this human-centered, scientific approach to shape how millions of people interact with Alexa.
