Eventbrite
Publish to Host
Publish to Host redefined the post-publish experience by helping creators move confidently from listing an event to hosting it successfully. I led design across this end-to-end flow, focusing on reducing cognitive load, improving readiness, and increasing creator engagement with key tools and milestones. The work resulted in clearer workflows, stronger adoption of host-facing features, and measurable improvements in creator confidence and task completion.
Eventbrite
Eventbrite Ads
Eventbrite Ads integrated paid promotion directly into the creator workflow to help organizers drive demand more effectively. I led design strategy and execution for this monetized product, balancing creator value, marketplace health, and business goals. The platform increased adoption of paid promotion, improved campaign setup success, and supported meaningful revenue growth while remaining intuitive and trustworthy for creators.

Marketing Tools
Marketing Tools unified Eventbrite’s fragmented promotion surfaces into a cohesive system that helped creators market events more effectively. I led design across strategy, systems, and execution, focusing on improving discoverability, simplifying workflows, and increasing adoption of key marketing capabilities. The work drove higher engagement with marketing features, improved campaign success rates, and laid the foundation for scalable, monetizable promotion across the marketplace.
Dutch App
Go Dutch
Go Dutch rethought how groups manage shared expenses, making it easier to split costs with clarity and trust. I led design from early concept through execution, focusing on reducing social friction, simplifying setup, and encouraging repeat use. The result was an intuitive product that supported faster adoption, clearer group coordination, and sustained engagement around a sensitive and high-trust use case.

My Spectrum App
My Spectrum redesigned a complex set of telecom account tools for over 16 million monthly users. I led design focused on simplifying high-frequency tasks, reducing friction across critical flows like billing, service management, and support, and improving reliability at scale.
