Research with range.

I'm a mixed-methods researcher with 10+ years building research programs that drive product strategy, GTM decisions, and business impact. I specialize in connecting customer insight to measurable outcomes and enabling cross-functional teams to use research in their own decision-making.

My work has spanned global enterprise research at Asana (where I also built AI-powered research tools and platforms), scalable research operations at quantilope, and Fortune 500 client engagements at LRW (now Material). I hold a B.S. in Cognitive Neuroscience from Brown University.

I'm exploring research roles in B2B SaaS, enterprise technology, and consumer/entertainment.

Churn Prevention Research

Impact: Foundational service plans generated $1M in new ARR in year one and improved account retention rates

Led end-to-end quantitative research identifying the adoption behaviors that predict churn risk. Findings drove the "Stop the Churn" and "Right for Me" initiatives, and led to increased investment in customer experience, specifically implementation support. This work directly led to the development of foundational service plans.

Adoption & Smart Friction Research

Impact: 2.5x better expansion outcomes with guided friction; influenced change management investment in Product and CX

Researched the relationship between friction in the adoption journey and long-term expansion. Discovered that adoption friction impacts growth more than retention: users stick despite late challenges, but won't expand. Presented to the full marketing org and workshopped 12 workstreams. Findings prioritized more change management resources in both Product and CX.

Product-Market Fit Assessment

Impact: Gave all product teams quantified feature-level health metrics; expanded to competitive benchmarking

Partnered with a VP of Product Management to build a robust, quantitative measure of attitudes and beliefs about Asana's features, including new AI capabilities. Designed a feature funnel showing where adoption broke down (awareness, activation, retention, expansion) and developed AI-specific metrics like perceived criticality, differentiation vs. market alternatives, and unique value perception. Expanded in subsequent waves to include competitive benchmarking.
