Hi, I'm
Carrie.
Architecting The Human Algorithm — at the intersection of engineering systems and social psychology.

Platform Power User
Managing a personal brand with 100k+ reach is more than a hobby; it's a living laboratory for product insights.
I stress-test retention tools, thumbnail A/B patterns, and community features on my own audience before proposing system-wide changes.
Algorithmic Safety Gates
Engineered LLM-powered moderation pipelines for internal creator communities. Balancing automated triage with human oversight.
Philosophy
"Building for Scale without losing the Soul."
My background as an Android Engineer means I understand the "how." My tenure in Product means I understand the "why."
I believe the best platforms are those that disappear into the background—enabling human connection without getting in the way. I optimize for Joy per Transaction as much as DAU.
