I help founders, product teams, and decision makers understand how consumers actually think about and use AI — and partner with them to build better product strategies. My insight draws on a decade of consumer research at Google and ongoing independent analysis of market data and emerging trends across the AI landscape.

Steering AI toward a more hopeful future.

After ten years at Google identifying emerging consumer trends and new product opportunities, I left when I realized the tech industry had a deeper problem: it was building AI products without truly understanding consumers or prioritizing their wellbeing.

Now I work independently as a researcher and product strategist, tracking emergent trends in consumer AI and explaining why they matter.
