hi, i'm aidana

multi-modal AI experiences, ambient, ethical, and empathetic computing

i enjoy building for community, equity, wellbeing, and creative expression.

after starting my career as a sustainable power electronics researcher i fell in love with design thinking, and eventually found my way into product. since, i have designed and shipped software and hardware that have helped companies secure millions in seed funding, acquire their first paying customers, grow top-of-funnel by 80%, and be acquired — reaching over 30 million users along the way.

i bring startup scrappiness to building from scratch and researcher thoroughness to understanding what makes users love and actually use novel technology.
