I had the pleasure of working with Katy for the last 1.5 years, during which she served as Director of Product Management, AI Operations on my team at SoundCloud. Katy combines exceptional technical depth with sharp strategic thinking. At a time when new AI solutions were emerging almost daily, she consistently cut through the noise, evaluating opportunities, pressure-testing their potential, and determining exactly which innovations were the right fit for us.
Katy is relentlessly solution-oriented and one of the most determined problem-solvers I've ever worked with. She never hesitates to go the extra mile. She's proactive, analytical, and always one step ahead, not just doing what's asked, but actively surfacing issues, shaping thoughtful plans, and often being the first to drive execution. On top of all that, Katy is simply fantastic to work with: down-to-earth, approachable, trustworthy, and someone you can always rely on when things get complex. She knows how to get things done, and she does it with integrity, clarity, and a truly collaborative spirit.
