Hype is a brand new monetization product on YouTube unlike anything you've seen before. Through rigorous user testing sprints, we uncovered an unmet need from fans all over the world looking to support their favorite creators.
I love solving real problems, and going down deep rabbit holes about products I care about. Right now my passion is niche online communities and cultural phenomenons; how they thrive, what sparks them, and how you can create a space for them on your platform.
I’m currently creating north stars on the monetization team at YouTube, thinking about how fans can support their favorite content creators. Before that, I was helping people find their next favorite mobile game on the Google Play Store, and helping users monitor their finances at JP Morgan Chase.
In my free time, I love cruising around the snow tipped mountains in my latest project car, or painting & illustrating.
