Hello! I'm Kayla - a product leader and strategist, building a more humanized future.

My aim is to build magical experiences that meaningfully help people. Fundamentally, I seek a future where our devices help us become who we want to be, rather than pulling our energy and attention away from what it means to be human. More specifically, I am fascinated by the design and development of new agents (primarily embodied robots) and their potential to engage with us in psychological and social ways. This future requires weaving together three elements: state-of-the-art tech (AI/ML), designing with the user in mind, and situating in a larger strategic context — and my background lies in all three.
