What I do Link to heading

I’m a product manager at Spotify working on content management and podcasting/video for Spotify for Creators and Megaphone. Specifically I work on upload flows and episode management features, making sure that it’s easy and quick to get audio and video from creators’ computers onto our platform, along with rich metadata.

I co-host the podcast Underunderstood, where we solve obscure internet mysteries. It’s gathered many fans and a great community, plus it’s been on a handful of “best podcasts of the year” lists, including The Verge and HuffPost.

In the past I’ve worked at The Verge, The Outline, and Mic in a variety of video and audio production roles, shooting, editing, writing, and producing.
