LOCATION

Khan Academy

2019 - 2022

I started as a Senior Product Designer and was promoted to a Principal Product Designer in 2022. At Khan, I worked on one of our newest product surface areas — teacher tools.

As a part of the Classroom team, I designed the platform that teachers use with their students, including features that supported educators with assignment creation, reporting, and everything in between.
