    We raised $1.2M in top-tier funding (Khosla Ventures) to explore new social & communication products.

    Achievements

    I managed some of the most complex and core projects at Causes, working closely with the founders and investors to form a roadmap and then work with engineers and designers on prioritization and execution of it. I ran growth hacks that 10x'ed site traffic at one point, managed migration of 1M pieces of user generated data, with a detailed communication and support plan, directly supported business and account management teams on delivery of campaigns to high profile partners (AT&T, Dell, Toyota, and Coca Cola), drove a re-architecture of the engineering backend associated with the core of the site to make it ready for the future, and meticulously mapped out the entire user experience and engagement buckets and how to move users from one bucket to the next for higher retention and engagement.
