Hi! I'm Rachel!

I'm a founder building solutions to the issue of waste in fashion. Previously I was the longest running product manager for search & ML at Reddit for 50M+ users.

Building Products + Solving Societal/ Environmental Problems

I'm a founder building AI systems to reduce waste in fashion and recommerce supply chains, with a focus on improving condition assessment and routing decisions for returned and excess inventory.

Previously I spent 5+ years at Reddit search leading the first integration of ML, development of the AI search tool, implemented numerous back and frontend improvements, and guided company-wide safe content solutions for sensitive content. My products were featured in 100+ articles in publications like Tech Crunch and the Verge.

I've been granted >$100k for numerous projects including a tech mentorship program for 50+ students from underrepresented backgrounds, sustainability initiatives, and projects in healthcare access. I also managed engineers at Taimaka, a nonprofit addressing malnutrition in Nigeria, mentor aspiring tech professionals, and donate 5% of my income to effective charities.

I love to travel, hike, and photograph people and places I come across in the world.
