About

I am a Director of Product Design at Flatiron Health where I lead a team supporting Flatiron in accelerating cancer research with the most advanced real-world evidence platform in oncology.

Currently, my team is focusing on developing products and services to help cancer researchers leverage Flatiron's real-world data to answer some of the most important questions in oncology. Some of the work I and my team have done in the past include building point-of-care tools to help oncologists provide evidence-based care to the patients, helping health systems understand the quality of care at their institution, and leveraging Flatiron’s technology to help bring clinical trial opportunities to more patients across our network. As a product designer, I believe design needs to be rooted in empathy, constantly exploring the treatment of people and acting as their advocates. 

Before that, I spent time at the Washington Post building new products and internal tools, and at Adaptly, building software to help big brands spend more money for your eyeballs. I also spent time serving as the ‘17-‘20 Director of the Asian American Journalists Association’s Voices program, along with Maya Sugarman. With public trust in the media at an all-time low, we believe this student program is how we help train the next generation of journalists—journalists who produce quality editorial work, who understand the larger impact their work has on society, and who are deeply engaged with driving the industry. Check out their work here.

I also like spreadsheets, em dashes, and making pottery. I really dislike touch screens, but I love folk music. I spend a lot of time thinking about how technology affects who we are as human beings. I spill things. I always have an opinion. I like to have passionate debates. I care about people.
