Global Innovation Partnerships @ Meta

About

I build high-trust communities that bridge the gap between people, culture and emerging technologies. With a background in social science and over a decade leading global strategy at the intersection of product, partnerships, and community, I’ve designed early-adopter ecosystems for launches across AI, wearable devices, blockchain, video, and social tools from Meta AI to Reels and Threads. My approach is systems-driven and insight-led: I work cross-functionally to translate qualitative and quantitative feedback into product and policy signal. I’ve built programs, forums, events and spaces for creators and technical users to not only adopt tools but shape them. I believe the most important communities of the future will reflect values, and co building mutual growth. That’s the work I’m most excited to do.
