Job update: I’ve joined Pinterest! I’ll be going back to my marketplace roots to lead and grow a new team called Shoppers. It’s a big part of making Pinterest be the visual inspiration platform where people come to search, save, and shop the best ideas in the world for all of life’s moments. The Pinterest team knocked my socks off with their high craft, ambition, and leadership style. I am honored to be working with Mira, Erika, Jasmine, Ophelia, Steven, Jason (again!), Camden (again!!), Matt (again!!!), Lise, Daniel, Xiang and so many more. Pinterest puts so much goodness into the world, through things like Body Type Ranges, trend reports, teen safety, in addition to just being a positive corner of the internet. I can’t wait to be a part of that. If you haven’t caught up with what Pinterest is up to in a while, check out our updates: https://lnkd.in/g5C36pmd I want to add that the job market is rough out there right now. If you’re reading this and you’re in the middle of a job search or considering leaving your role, I’m happy to help with advice or a portfolio dry run. My DMs are open. Onward!

1moA) first off—congratulations! Can’t wait to hear more about this new team and focus for Pinterest. B) If you need a copywriter in the near future, I’m looking for a new team to join. This sounds like an exciting opportunity! As someone who has recently used Pinterest to figure out personal goals and next steps post lay off, helping others find motivation and inspiration sounds like a good time! C) But advice or a portfolio review also would be most appreciated as well, if you’re willing!
