Projects

Tech-enabled Waste Solutions Marketplace

I led the end-to-end development of WasteMatch, a tech-enabled marketplace redefining how people handle junk removal, cleanouts, and bulky item pickups. The platform connects users with a trusted network of local haulers, contractors, and equipment rentals—on-demand and without the usual friction. From solo-item pickups to full property cleanouts, WasteMatch streamlines the entire process with transparent pricing, fast dispatch, and human-friendly support. We've helped users save time, reduce waste, and tap into local help exactly when they need it most.See More

Outing Growth Lead

As a strategy consultant for Outing, I focused on driving growth, customer acquisition, and expansion strategy. I helped shape the company’s go-to-market approach by refining positioning, pricing models, and early traction tactics. I developed scalable user acquisition channels—including influencer partnerships, paid social, and referrals—and worked on onboarding flows to convert first-time users into repeat hosts. I also contributed to the city expansion strategy by identifying high-impact local partnerships and creating playbooks to onboard experience providers efficiently. On the data side, I helped build Outing’s early growth loops, mapped out full-funnel analytics, and used cohort insights to inform product and marketing decisions. Additionally, I supported pitch positioning for investor conversations, including the company’s successful acceptance into the a16z Talent x Opportunity accelerator.See More

DumpMap - Find Local Landfills in seconds

I designed and built Dump Map as a location-based web app to help users easily find nearby landfills, transfer stations, scrap yards, and donation centers. Built with Base44, the tool lets contractors, haulers, and everyday users explore detailed info like accepted materials, pricing, hours, and contact info—all on an interactive map UI. I led data sourcing across hundreds of Georgia-based facilities, structured it into a usable format, and brought the platform to life with a clean, mobile-friendly front end. Dump Map is part of a larger vision to improve transparency and efficiency in local waste disposal by giving people the info they need before they drive.See More

TradeTalk - 1:1 Mentorship from the best

I created TradeTalk to bridge the gap between aspiring tradespeople and experienced professionals in industries like roofing, plumbing, hauling, and home services. Built on Sharetribe, TradeTalk is a modern mentorship marketplace where users can book 1:1 coaching calls, shadowing opportunities, or business advice sessions directly from seasoned pros. My role included platform strategy, branding, UX flows, and service design. I focused on crafting a low-friction user experience with clearly defined value for both mentors and mentees, while testing early pricing models and user acquisition channels. TradeTalk aims to modernize access to real-world career advice for people who learn best by doing—and want guidance from someone who's already built a business from the ground up.See More

Venture Dev Consultant

As a venture development consultant for Aurora Tights, I supported the team in scaling a mission-driven apparel brand serving dancers and figure skaters of all skin tones. I worked on strategic growth initiatives across brand positioning, customer experience, and digital sales operations. That included refining the e-commerce funnel, advising on pricing and SKU strategy, and helping improve the narrative around inclusive athleticwear in performance sports. I also collaborated on business development, identifying potential retail partners, fundraising opportunities, and key customer segments to target in future campaigns. My focus was to help Aurora build a scalable, values-aligned growth engine while keeping community and representation at the center of the brand.See More
