Product Strategy & MVP Lead
May 2024 – Present

  • Using AI to deliver personalized, science-backed medical advice for perimenopausal and menopausal women to manage symptoms using hormone therapy (HT) - MVP release coming summer 2025!

  • Leading product strategy, MVP development, and content design for a personalized, science-backed digital tool helping women navigate hormone therapy (HT) during perimenopause and menopause.

  • We're building it to tackle one of the most under-resourced areas of women’s health - where stigma, under-education, and broken care systems leave millions of women without clear, personalized treatment options.

  • Our platform blends AI, clinical research, and compassionate UX to increase HT literacy, reduce patient and clinician frustration, and empower shared decision-making between users, providers, and insurers.


Highlights:

  • Shaped and executed the MVP roadmap for summer 2025 launch

  • Led UX content development across homepage, quiz, and treatment plan flows

  • Synthesized research across user needs, clinical guidelines, and insurance friction points

  • Built tools to guide women toward ideal HT options - and help clinicians personalize care in minutes, not months

  • Ensured inclusive, evidence-based, non-commercial design and tone throughout

  • More coming very soon!

Additional Work

  • Crafted engaging product discovery curriculum for Sagely mentors to educate and empower the US Air Force’s newest electromagnetic spectrum warfare software teams at Wavelength

  • Guided B Lab technology transformation from a waterfall-style project operating model to a more user-centered, outcome-driven product approach to drastically reduce the time for companies to complete goals for short-term impact and to finish the extensive B Corp certification process

  • Optimized Gatsby’s first-time UX by removing distracting elements and by reducing CMS starter site integration and deployment steps to decrease onboarding dropoff rates

  • Launched Gatsby’s Agency subscription tier to accommodate customers with teams needing more Editor seats, ways to organize client site projects, and client site billing transfers to increase a key customer segment’s satisfaction, retention, and lifetime value (LTV)

  • Fostering meaningful mentorship and coaching relationships with aspiring and entry-level Product and UX folks through My Mentor Path, Out in Tech and Black Girls CODE
