Apple, Creative Engineering Program Manager
Memories Feature, Apple Camera & Photos
The Memories feature in the Photos app creates personalized collections of photos and videos. I was approached to launch Memories 2.0 with Apple Music integration to create a movie-like experience. We developed the roadmap and strategy, research and development, shipping builds through weekly's with Apple Music leadership, Engineering, Product Marketing, Legal, Privacy, Program Office, QA. I oversaw the multi-million dollar program budget, negotiated vendor contracts, commissioned and licensed music content by working closely with Apple Music leadership and Legal. We developed the ecosystem through music supervision, commissioning, and licensing content with artists, record labels, and publishers, and vendors. I led the production and shipping of two large-scale tools utilizing AMP APIs and licensed content for the OS’s on-device ML algorithms. We supported product integrity by implementing quality assurance tiers and developing guidelines, automated systems, and test libraries with Engineering, Product Marketing, & QA teams.

Twitter, Experiential Marketing & Campaigns Manager
Twitter Aurora (Manifold)
At Twitter I was an Experiential Marketing & Campaigns Manager for the internal creative agency #Studio. For our first brand launch we showcased to the world that Twitter was the platform for ”what’s happening” our campaign for news, events, and cultural conversations. Our team was tasked with creating a data visualization where we could view what was happening around the world in real-time. By working with creative leadership, Product Marketing, Design, and Engineering teams we strategized how to best visually represent millions of Twitter users interacting with one another on trending topics. We approached Twitter Aurora as an Agile project by completing daily sprints and held a biweekly with leadership. At headquarters, we created an immersive experience that mapped the “world’s conversations live in 3D space.” After successfully completing first at headquarters, software was developed for data visualizations on displays globally in 10 countries.
