I've worked in the early stages of technology startups in NY, London and Berlin focused on biz dev, operations, product and strategy. Prior to moving to Berlin in 2019, I served as the Chief of Staff at Spring, a fashion & beauty marketplace where I led projects across product strategy, fundraising (raising over $100mm in 4 rounds of financing), investor & board management, corp dev, finance, and operations.
Before co-founding Sylva with Tom and Emily, I started the Chief of Staff Network in 2016 - a private community of Chiefs of Staff from hundreds of VC-backed tech and media companies*. Pretty much every career move and most big learning opportunities in the past 5 years have spawned from or been supported by this community.
*Fun fact, this is how Tom and I first connected!
I'm currently leading Sylva's product strategy and engineering team, supporting initiatives across Sylva's roadmap addressing community operations, member experience, revenue generation, platform migrations/integrations and the data that links all of these things together.
I'm passionate about all things outdoors - rock climbing, hiking, kayaking. Europe has been a fun playground of mountains, rivers, fjords and forests to explore :)

This document is designed to help team members propose a solution to a problem and get feedback on that proposal.
The goal of the Product Requirements Document is to help our team members fully understand a problem and define what’s needed to address it.
A PRD is most helpful for working through an ambiguous challenge with many stakeholders. It is often followed by one or more Sylva RFC’s based on the outlined requirements in each proposed Phase.

Fun fact: I go canoeing on the Hudson, which I will talk about nonstop if you let me (don't let me).
My extended family (community?) is important to me because life and reality are shared experiences. Those experiences can guide you to do better for yourself and those around you.
