At Nextdoor, I designed monetization experiences that balanced business growth with community trust. My work spanned search ads, Thumbtack integrations, and generative AI tools within the Ads Manager. I led explorations that turned service-related neighbor posts into actionable search experiences, creating new revenue streams while maintaining user value. I also designed boosting flows and partnered with cross-functional teams to ensure measurable impact through increased ad adoption, CTR, and revenue growth.

I also led the creation of an AI-powered writing assistant for grammar and clarity, balancing user trust with business needs. In addition, I uplifted Chegg’s design system and visual identity, ensuring consistency and clarity across the product ecosystem.

As part of Boundless Immigration’s product team, I designed solutions that transformed the traditionally inefficient and reactive immigration process into a modern, digital-first experience. I shaped workflows for both applicants and attorneys, reducing friction and improving transparency in complex legal journeys. My work built upon my role at Bridge Immigration, where I was the founding designer and laid the foundation for the product that helped pave the way for acquisition.
